+## patching
+
+A common issue with Helm charts is the need to template everything under the sun.
+Kubenix solves this issue by merging configuration during evaluation.
+
+For example, to patch the deployment created by the release above:
+
+```nix
+{
+  # define a resource with the same name
+  kubernetes.resources.deployments.nginx = {
+    # be sure to match the corresponding namespace as well
+    metadata.namespace = "default";
+    # here we can configure anything and are no longer bound by `values.yaml` 
+    spec.template.spec.containers.nginx.env = [{
+      name = "MY_VARIABLE";
+      value = "100";
+    }];
+  };
+}
