Under "Try it right here," my first instinct was to drag-and-drop the components from the left onto the right pane.

that was the intention actually but then we thought many people would use it on mobile and settled on clicks. would you prefer dnd interaction?

It redirected me to something called "Digger" at Digger.dev. Are you the same company?

Same team behind it. But it's a completely new UI, much simplified and streamlined. From previous launches we learned that the UI was quite confusing, and rebuilt it from scratch. The old one can be found at app.digger.dev; this is dashboard.digger.dev

I don't understand why there's two apps, name and domains (doing the same thing?), one redirecting to the other.

Is your startup named OpsFlow (previously digger.dev)? Or is OpsFlow a new product home digger?

this is pretty interesting. Quick question - let's take a popular piece of software (Apache Airflow). Let's say i want to set it up on AWS EKS with all the best practices + spot instances cost reduction ... how would i do it with OpsFlow ?

The problem with devops is that i dont know the "right way". I dont know whether i should use private VPC or a public VPC, etc etc.

So a library of readymade "templates" would be quite useful.

Congrats on your launch. I'll have to check it out this weekend. But as UI / UX goes - and in a similar-ish space- Buddy.works is so smooth I think sometimes smile to myself while I'm using it. BW is a great example for all of us. Not knocking your product; just trying to help. Good luck!!

thanks!!

I feel like if you need this, you're not using the right platform. I don't see how someone gets the benefits of IaC with this, seems like it just improves the console experience and auto generates crap IaC. Why even use IaC at this point, aside from your tool probably needing it on the backend to deploy things?

If you really need this, seems like you'd be better served by the low code solutions on the cloud providers (AWS Elastic Beanstalk, Google App Engine, Azure App Service).

Just my opinion, but I would be shocked to find out that people were trying to provision anything in their AWS accounts from their phone.

I was interested in it, but there's no full examples of what it actually produced on the site. No videos, no code. On the Product Hunt site, the video stops right as you're about to push the button. There's no way I'm going to connect this to my AWS account just to find out what it can do without knowing what it's going to do.

Earlier quoted context omitted.

It'd be shocking because of how bad the console UX is, but I bet there are many people who would like to do that. It's not always enterprise-grade services I'm working on, sometimes I just want to hack on something with my BT keyboard during a train ride.
