# Values.yaml Design Reference

## Design Principles

### 1. Every Value Is Documented

```yaml
# Bad — what does this mean?
replicaCount: 1
maxSurge: 25%

# Good — clear purpose, type, and constraints
# -- Number of pod replicas. Ignored when autoscaling.enabled is true.
replicaCount: 1
# -- Maximum number of pods above desired count during rolling update (int or percentage).
maxSurge: 25%
```

### 2. Sensible Defaults That Work
