Looks really nice but sadly there aren't many PowerShell examples. I will stick to Universal Dashboard until they can provide some examples of this working with PowerShell.

#32I initially interpreted this as pg (postgres) let. Still interesting, but slightly disappointed
Yeah, I kept searching for how this used postgres and ultimately was disappointed. What an odd name.

#33Earlier quoted context omitted.
Looks like there's a Go client here https://github.com/pglet/pglet-go
Just looked through the source, that is not a client! There is only a constructor to create a "Page" but the page has no methods, and there is nothing else exported.
Fair enough, I only read the description, didn't check if it was complete.

#34For PowerShell at least, this one is the best:

#36Why isn't it just called Piglet?
already exists: https://ollycope.com/software/piglet-templates/latest/ also this one is very popular too: http://pyglet.org/ I would personally avoid the current name as it sounds phonetically the same as the above.
Also "pg" could be short for page -- as in PgUp or PgDown. So it's kind of cute in a sense.

#37Oh, no, I've missed my HN moment! :) Anyway, hope it's not too late to say hi and answer some questions.
Hi, I'm Feodor - the author of Pglet. The project is still in "alpha" and there is still a lot of experimenting around default modes and API will probably have some breaking changes going forward.
Thank you for the constructive feedback you guys gave here!
Re: licensing - Only Pglet Server is under AGPL at the moment, multi-language client libraries which are embedded in your app are MIT. Selection of AGPL is not final and was mostly influenced by recent fear/trend of big co incorporating your service into their cloud offerings.
Re: remote mode by default - your app code is not being uploaded to console.pglet.io, but it's UI is "streamed" there only. However, I agree this looks scary for the initial experience - will roll it back to "local" mode by default with explicit "publish" option.
Better docs, more examples and other languages support (Go, Rust, Deno) are coming later this year. Stay tuned!
