How does the ArgoCD controller interact with Kubernetes?
The Application Controller watches for changes in the Git repository and the Kubernetes cluster. It ensures that the live state of applications matches the desired state defined in Git. If discrepancies are found, it can automatically or manually synchronize the states.
