Helm helps you manage Kubernetes applications — Helm Charts help you define, install, and upgrade even the most complex Kubernetes application.
Starting from a Helm chart is another way to get started with an entire application stack.

Meshery MeshMap provides the capability to import a design/pattern from a Helm Chart.
Helm helps you manage Kubernetes applications. Helm Charts help you define, install, and upgrade even the most complex Kubernetes application.
Starting a MeshMap design from a Helm chart is another way to get started with an entire application stack.

Jump start your MeshMap design by importing your existing Helm Charts.

## Requirements

- Access to the _Meshery Playground_. If you don't have an account, sign up at [Meshery Playground](https://play.meshery.io/).
- Access to _MeshMap_. You can sign up for the beta at [https://layer5.io/cloud-native-management/meshmap](https://layer5.io/cloud-native-management/meshmap).
- A Helm chart package in **.tgz** format.

- Access a Meshery Server. If you have not [deployed your own Meshery Server](https://docs.meshery.io/installation), you can use the _Meshery Playground_. If you don't have an account, sign up for free at [https://play.meshery.io](https://play.meshery.io).
- Access to _MeshMap_. You can sign up for the beta at [https://layer5.io/cloud-native-management/meshmap](https://layer5.io/cloud-native-management/meshmap) or request access from within your Layer5 Cloud account.
- One or more Helm chart packages in **.tgz** format.

## Importing a Design

Click the **Import Design** option under the _Designs_ tab in MeshMap.

Next, provide a name under Design File Name (1), set the _Design Type_ to Helm Chart and paste the URL (3) to the location of the Helm chart package in .tgz format.

## Steps to cloning a design from Catalog using MeshMap

1. Switch to MeshMap Designer mode, if not already in it.
1. In the left navigation panel, click the “Catalog” menu tab.
1. Select a design from the list that appears in the panel.
1. A modal will pop up requesting you to clone (create a copy of) the design you’ve selected.

![Copy of a Design](/meshmap/getting-started/images/2024-04-18_19-57.png)

This will create a copy of the catalog item to a new design, now owned by you.

1. Click “clone” and a copy of the design will appear on your MeshMap canvas. You can then configure the design to suit your purposes.
2. Find your newly cloned design in the list of designs in the left navigation panel.

You are now free to deploy it as it is or modify it further.
