Mainly Rails. Some Go.
Cool. What did you use Go for that rails couldn't do (or do well/scale), if you mind me asking?
The CLI is also written in Go.

First version of the distribution API was a Go microservice. But that microservice is now deprecated and its replacement was rolled into the main Rails app. That microservice streamed large files (so I went with Go), but I nixed the streaming and Go was no longer needed. The CLI is also written in Go.
Have you contemplated making the backend open source or at least source-available ("Look but don't touch", you may only use the hosted service, etc)? Would love to take a look at the implementation

I haven’t announced it yet -- but yes. Working towards open sourcing everything. :)

I promise I'll keep the secret till then :)
At first I thought that a code alternative for a no-code solution like zapier was counterintuitive. But as an engineer using Zapier (for the first time) these past few months I got so frustrated by the lack of an option to just write some "if" or just 2 lines of code to make things work the way I want them. I think trigger.dev nails it. This is exactly what I needed.

Trigger.dev looks like it would be amazing if you want a simplified temporal that is still 100% code based and exclusively in Typescript. If you are looking for a Zapier-for-developer experience, we took an alternative route at Windmill of allowing Python/Javascript/Go/Bash as steps but the workflows are still GUI based: https://github.com/windmill-labs/windmill/blob/main/imgs/win... Despite them being GUI based, you…

I've spoken to many IT professionals over the years that have been frustrated with BetterCloud. I've just been waiting for someone to launch BestCloud as a competitor.
Maybe BestCloud was the OG, usurped by BetterCloud.
