+# SFTD Chart
+
+## Deploy
+
+
+Using your own certificates:
+
+```
+helm install sftd charts/std --set mediaAddress=10.0.0.1 --set host=example.com --set-file tls.crt=/path/to/tls.crt --set-file tls.key=/path/to/tls.key
+```
+
+Using Cert-manager:
+```
+helm install sftd charts/std --set mediaAddress=10.0.0.1 --set host=example.com --set tls.issuerRef.name=letsencrypt-staging
+```
+
+You can switch between `cert-manager` and own-provided certificates at any
+time. Helm will delete the `sftd` secret automatically and then cert-manager
+will create it instead.
