 Tape can parse a directory with Kubernetes configuration and find all canonical references to application images.
 If an image reference contains a digest, Tape will use it, otherwise it resolves it by making a registry API call.

 ### What configuration formats does Tape support, does it support any kind of templating?
 
-Presently, it supports plain JSON and YAML manifest. In the future, the goal is to accommodate a variety of popular
-templating options, e.g. CUE, Helm, and scripting languages, so that environment-specific parameters can be specified.
-It may also support basic runtime overrides with or without templating e.g. for namespaces and labels.
-It should also offer flexibility around templating at buildtime, runtime, or done partially buildtime/runtime.

 ## Acknowledgments & Prior Art
 
 What Tape does is very much in the spirit of Docker images, but it extends the idea by shifting the perspective to configuration
 as an entry point to a map of dependencies, as opposed to the forced separation of app images and configuration.

+It's not a novelty to package configuration in OCI, there are many examples of this, yet that in itself doesn't provide for interoperability.
+One could imagine something like Tape as a model that abstracts configuration tooling so that end-users don't need to think about whether
 a particular app needs to be deployed with Helm, Kustomize, or something else.
 
 Tape was directly inspired by [flux push artifact](https://fluxcd.io/flux/cheatsheets/oci-artifacts/). Incidentally, it also resembles
