Example for deploying a Kubernetes app with GitLab

In talking with a customer today, they passed along feedback that we are missing a good quality tutorial/guide for how to deploy their app to Kubernetes.

In this case, they already have all the YML's and even the Helm chart. What they needed was samples on how to connect to the cluster, leverage the defined variables, etc.

One thing that helped was this blog post: https://about.gitlab.com/2016/12/14/continuous-delivery-of-a-spring-boot-application-with-gitlab-ci-and-kubernetes/

But that is hard to find and from last year. They specifically noted getting started with deployment using Spinnaker was much easier and with better guidance.
