Summary of Changes

Hello @Eeshu-Yadav, I'm Gemini Code Assist1! I'm currently reviewing this pull request and will post my feedback shortly. In the meantime, here's a summary to help you and other reviewers quickly get up to speed!

This pull request focuses on enhancing the documentation for installing Kmesh Helm charts in the quick-start.md guide. The primary goal is to clarify versioning practices for OCI-based installations and to introduce a new, explicit method for installing directly from a Helm chart archive, thereby improving user experience and consistency across installation instructions.

Highlights

  • Documentation Improvement: Expanded the guidance for OCI Helm chart installation, providing clear examples for specifying stable, pre-release, and omitting the version for the latest release.
  • New Installation Method: Introduced a new installation option for Helm charts via a .tgz archive, including the command syntax and a placeholder for the version, linking to GitHub Releases.
  • Content Reorganization: Updated and renumbered the installation options in the quick-start.md document to accommodate the new Helm Chart Archive method, shifting 'Install from Yaml' to Option 4.

Code Review

This pull request improves the installation documentation by adding instructions for installing from a Helm chart archive and clarifying version selection. The changes are a good addition. I've added a couple of suggestions to further enhance the clarity of the instructions and ensure consistency, which should help prevent potential user confusion.

Comment on lines 96 to 98
- Use --version v1.1.0-alpha for pre-releases
- Omit --version to install the latest version (not recommended for production)

To improve clarity, I suggest rephrasing these lines. The repetition of --version is a bit redundant since the command is already shown above. Focusing on the version format itself makes the examples more direct and easier to understand.

Suggested change
- Use --version v1.1.0 for stable releases
- Use --version v1.1.0-alpha for pre-releases
- For stable releases, use a version like `v1.1.0`.
- For pre-releases, use a version like `v1.1.0-alpha`.

helm install kmesh ./kmesh-helm-<version>.tgz -n kmesh-system --create-namespace
```
- Replace `<version>` with your desired version from [GitHub Releases](https://github.com/kmesh-net/kmesh/releases):

This instruction could be clearer to prevent user error. I recommend the following changes:

  • Add an example version (e.g., v1.1.0) to clarify that the v prefix is needed.
  • Enclose the <version> placeholder in backticks for consistency with other placeholders in the document.
  • Remove the extra space before the link for correct markdown formatting.
  • Replace the trailing colon with a period, as this is a complete sentence.
Suggested change
- Replace `<version>` with your desired version from [GitHub Releases](https://github.com/kmesh-net/kmesh/releases):
- Replace `<version>` with your desired version from [GitHub Releases](https://github.com/kmesh-net/kmesh/releases) (e.g., `v1.1.0`).
