Ten years ago, in a hackathon shortly after the release of Kubernetes 1.1.0, Helm was born.

initial add
The first commit can be found on the helm-classic Git repository where the codebase for Helm v1 is located. This is the original Helm, before it merged with Deployment Manager and was folded into the Kubernetes project.
This commit was just the beginning. Helm would be shown off at the first KubeCon, just a few weeks later. From there Helm development would take off and a community of developers and charts would follow.
Happy 10th Birthday, Helm!
