This chart is the best available way to operate GitLab on Kubernetes. It deploys and configures nearly all features of GitLab, including: a [Runner](https://docs.gitlab.com/runner/), [Container Registry](../../user/project/container_registry.html#gitlab-container-registry), [Mattermost](https://docs.gitlab.com/omnibus/gitlab-mattermost/), [automatic SSL](https://github.com/kubernetes/charts/tree/master/stable/kube-lego), and a [load balancer](https://github.com/kubernetes/ingress/tree/master/controllers/nginx). It is based on our [GitLab Omnibus Docker Images](https://docs.gitlab.com/omnibus/docker/README.html).
