Argo CD is a declarative, GitOps continuous delivery tool for Kubernetes. It is with this tool admins can see all the deployed Kubernetes clusters and services. This is useful for updating,refreshing,syncing, and reviewing/debugging each services logs.
If you are new to Argo CD we recommend reviewing the official documentation.
Validating your Argo deployment¶

A good sanity check for your ArgoCD deployment is validating its pods are up, using kubectl get pods -n argocd
