What it does
Flightcontrol is a PaaS that deploys to your AWS account. You get 2-6x faster builds, 50-75% cheaper compute, and near perfect reliability. Deploying to your AWS account enables us to leapfrog traditional PaaS on almost every metric.
Get a Vercel-like experience in your own AWS account. Manage and monitor Terraform resources, builds, and deploys in one place.
Ravion is the successor to Flightcontrol. Nothing changes for existing customers — your dashboard and docs are right where you left them. ✕ Get a Vercel-like experience in your own AWS account. You and your agents get one place to manage and monitor Terraform resources, builds, and deploys. New requirements keep turning into workarounds, and maintaining your setup takes more time away from your product. Getting infrastructure running is only the start. The team still has to assemble networking, permissions, pipelines, monitoring, and day-to-day operations. The engineers who could build that system are the same engineers needed on the product. Hiring takes time, and the roadmap cannot wait.…from ravion.com

Hi HN! Porter Cloud (https://porter.run/porter-cloud) is a Platform as a Service (PaaS) like Heroku, but we make it easy for you to migrate to AWS, Azure, or GCP when you're ready. Like Heroku, Porter takes care of a lot of generic DevOps work for you (like setting up CI/CD, containerizing your applications, autoscaling, SSL certificates, setting up a reverse proxy) and lets you deploy your apps with a few clicks — saving you a lot of time while developing. However, as you probably know, there’s a downside: platforms like this become constraining if and when your app…

Talanoa▲341Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…

Many years ago, I made VJ softwares (to mix live visuals in clubs) for unexpected platforms like the Game Boy Advance, the Playstation 2 and the Raspberry Pi. This year, I’m back with a new web-app: Pikimov. Inspired by Photopea (a free Photoshop clone), I created this web-based motion design & video editor as an alternative to After Effects, to fill empty void. It's free, without signup, without cloud uploads (your files stay on your machine), and your projects are not used for AI models training.
