Question

Hello!

Using terraform to spawn an AWS VPC and EKS Cluster from scratch. After the eks cluster is spawned, I'm using `helm_release` to deploy baseline components (such as vault, consul, etc). Obviously, some of these components aren't configured in helm so I need to use traditional kubernetes manifests: nginx-controller, kubernetes-dashboard, etc. Unfortunately, unlike helm_release, kubernetes-alpha requires an active API connection to the cluster (which obviously doesn't exist yet). Are there any plans to include dependency management in the provider or is this really not technically feasible? I guess I'm surprised helm provider can handle it, so we should be able too?

Will also forward this query to the kubernetes slack.
