+# Istio base Helm Chart
+
+This chart installs resources shared by all Istio revisions. This includes Istio CRDs.
+
+## Setup Repo Info
+
+```console
+helm repo add istio https://istio-release.storage.googleapis.com/charts
+helm repo update
+```
+
+_See [helm repo](https://helm.sh/docs/helm/helm_repo/) for command documentation._
+
+## Installing the Chart
+
+To install the chart with the release name `istio-base`:
+
+```console
+kubectl create namespace istio-system
+helm install istio-base istio/base -n istio-system
+```
+
+### Profiles
+
+Istio Helm charts have a concept of a `profile`, which is a bundled collection of value presets.
+These can be set with `--set profile=<profile>`.
+For example, the `demo` profile offers a preset configuration to try out Istio in a test environment, with additional features enabled and lowered resource requirements.
+
+For consistency, the same profiles are used across each chart, even if they do not impact a given chart.
+
+Explicitly set values have highest priority, then profile settings, then chart defaults.
+
+As an implementation detail of profiles, the default values for the chart are all nested under `defaults`.
+When configuring the chart, you should not include this.
+That is, `--set some.field=true` should be passed, not `--set defaults.some.field=true`.
