Can one ArgoCD instance deploy to the cluster it runs in and remote clusters simultaneously?

Beginner

Answer

Yes. ArgoCD treats its own cluster (in-cluster) and registered remote clusters as destinations. Applications simply set the appropriate destination. So a single instance can manage local platform components and remote workload clusters at the same time.
Real-world example The management cluster's ArgoCD deploys its own ingress locally and application workloads to three remote clusters.

Common follow-ups: What destination targets the local cluster? | Do remote clusters need registration?
