Getting Started

Install BeaverDeck with the official Helm chart, open the service, and complete the initial administrator setup.

Install with Helm

helm upgrade --install beaverdeck oci://ghcr.io/arequs/charts/beaverdeck \
  --namespace beaverdeck \
  --create-namespace \
  --set clusterName=your-cluster-name

Wait for the deployment to become available:

kubectl -n beaverdeck rollout status deployment/beaverdeck

Open BeaverDeck

If ingress is not configured, forward the service locally:

kubectl -n beaverdeck port-forward svc/beaverdeck 8080:80

Open http://localhost:8080. On first start, set the initial administrator username and password. BeaverDeck then stores the authentication configuration in its Kubernetes Secret.
