For the past several months we have been preparing to launch the Noop Developer Platform. The platform handles all aspects of running and operating your software.
Until a few months ago, our focus was on hosting and running software in the Cloud. But we realized there's a growing need for local development tools that can help make the transition from local development to cloud hosting easier. And so, Workshop was born.
We felt existing tools were either too specialized or too disconnected from the specific constraints and complexities of cloud hosting.
Noop Workshop aims to solve this problem by defining an Application in one unified format that works in both local and cloud environments.
It’s possible to use Noop Workshop even if Noop Cloud is not your target deployment. The Noop Application config, called a Blueprint, will be familiar to developers that have experience using popular container orchestration tools. However, Blueprints are a higher-level abstraction, and more Application concepts can be defined with less code.
Once you're up and running, Noop provides a suite of tools for analyzing logs, interacting with running containers, routing traffic (all HTTPS) and automatically detecting code changes. In addition to technical advantages, our license has no commercial use restrictions — we intend to keep it that way.
We want to eliminate the operational overhead of software. Workshop along with Cloud is the foundation on which we plan to achieve that goal.
Our Cloud platform is available by invitation. If you’d like to join the waitlist, download our Desktop app [2] and select the Cloud button on the app home screen to register.
