anyone using this for kubernetes config generation? What's been your experience?

Don't. Use helm, kustomize or a decent code language. Dhall will constrict, slow you down, make onboarding a nightmare, and ultimately be as brittle as other alternatives (Only it's harder to find where it broke). I cannot advocate against dhall enough.
