Argo Workflow Templates: A Practical Deep-Dive
summary
Covers the concrete mechanics and tradeoffs of nine template types: container, script, container set, resource, suspend, HTTP, plugin, plus steps and DAG invocators, with working YAML examples and a linked repo. Demonstrates when a container set saves pod startup cost, when a resource template vs a container is more efficient, and that HTTP and plugin templates reuse a single agent pod. Calls out confusing naming around workflow templates (one word) and lists docs PRs that fix ambiguities.
