Epinio Applications Workflow Updates​

Based on user feedback, we've made 4 improvements to the Epinio UI which make it easier to create, update and export applications.

Step 1

The application deployment creation UI now supports custom application variables (based on schema-ish metadata). Where possible, the UI informs the user about boundaries such as min/max allowed values.

Users can export applications as a helm chart and corresponding container image(s).
