Dodo – Deploy application by drawing on Canvas

Hacker News

Hi everyone, I want to share an update on my project dodo. Month ago I made an initial post which demonstrated capabilities of the dodo PaaS. After getting some feedback I realised UX/DX could be improved significantly. Canvas lets you define your application infrastructure by "drawing" visually. By drawing I mean dropping nodes on canvas and connecting them to enable discovery and communication between services. Backend is the same, and you can think of the Canvas as a visual dodo json configuration file editor. One can imagine how such UI can evolve. I plan on adding monitoring and log viewing capabilities to it in near future. Another update I have is that dodo has one actual client now (apart from me) who has been using hosted version of dodo daily for the past month. Please let me know what you think, and get in touch with me if you want to try it out. I'd be happy to send you an invite. Thanks. * Initial announcement: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=41927516
