Something interesting to do from now on: Search in Google `site: https://cloudcraft.co/view` You will see the shared links from existing diagrams. Right now Google had just indexed one https://cloudcraft.co/view/d3908616-4d96-4d5c-8747-6856e8801...

Sorry to spoil the fun, but I've disallowed /view/ from robots.txt to prevent accidental shares. I think this one must have been from someone sharing on Twitter or some other public place where Google would have picked it up.

An open library will be something really cool to have! Give it a though, I'm eager to see what others diagrams

Some feedback: "In the delta of your current understanding and the reality of the cloud, lies cost savings and insight." This sentence was a little confusing. Maybe: Cloudcraft make it easy and clear where your could is and where it could go. Something a little simpler and more direct.

Thank you, as a non-native English speaker this is extremely valuable feedback. I'll rework the text. One idea is that could literally run a infrastructure diff of your architecture and your live environment, for example after a deployment or between two points in time: You may have resources left over by accident, or not captured in the design.

"`diff` for your AWS infrastructure" might work.

How have you created the beautiful 3D icons? The look better than from the AWS icon template site. :)

You have a "sign in with google" option. Can we get others? (sign in with Github would be nice, that is the nexus of all my dev related stuff and use it in a bunch of other dev related services.)
