exo VS swc-node

SEEKING FREELANCER | REMOTE | Designer

Looking for a UX designer who has exposure to DevOps/Cloud/Programming.

Building numerous new features for https://exo.deref.io and need someone to help wireframe, flesh out the UX, and design high-fidelity screens for implementation.

The ideal candidate for this project is someone who has dabbled in engineering and devops, but is primarily a designer. Also a good fit would be those who have experience designing cloud/devops/eng products in the past.

CSS/HTML implementation skills a big plus, but not strictly required.

Contact [email protected] with a statement of interest, your rates, and a link to your portfolio or other evidence of relevant experience. Thanks!

We're working on something like this at Deref: https://exo.deref.io/ - The version of our Exo tool that is out there now is a local process & docker container orchestrator with log viewer etc. We're working on adding support for a rich set of component types like functions, queues, workflows, cron jobs, etc. Everything would have a nice console GUI, so you don't need to be an expert at infrastructure-as-code, yet you'd get a version-controlled manifest file that you can use for reproducible deployments. We plan to support deployment to your own infrastructure or an eventual PaaS platform.

If folks are interested in working on something like this, my email address is in my profile. Don't hesitate to reach out.

Hi there, I'm the lead on this project. We're trying to improve the dev experience for service development. Lots of folks who have workflows on top of docker-compose, but there is still a big gap between what compose can offer and what real projects and organizations need. This release of our tool, exo, adds compose compatibility and provides a nice graphical log viewer, some UX for starting/stopping containers, etc. We've got big plans, but would love to hear from you about what would improve your den env.

Also, if you have compose projects that don't work, please do file an issue on github! Exo is open source: https://github.com/deref/exo - We're aiming for extremely robust compose compatibility, but aren't 100% there yet.

Deref's mission is to enable engineers everywhere to build and maintain world-class cloud services. Coding the perimeter is a fundamental design tenant of exo, our DevOps toolkit that enhances your development environment.

swc-node is much faster. No typechecking but you can have that running as a separate process with typescript in watch mode. Basically never have to wait for compiles or typechecking checking then.

fwiw swc has an official loader: https://github.com/swc-project/swc-node

I actually just switched my team's app over to use https://github.com/Brooooooklyn/swc-node for our Jest tests, but if we're going to upgrade to Next 12 it'd be nice to reuse whatever's included there.

I actually upgraded my team's Jest config to use https://github.com/Brooooooklyn/swc-node a few weeks ago. However, our Jenkins CI agents run RHEL7, and neither of the Linux binary targets would run. The `x64-gnu` binary needed a `GLIBC_2_23` symbol when only 2.18 was available, and the `x64-musl` binary had no `musl-libc` on the machine. I don't own the Jenkins agents, so I couldn't install other deps myself.

I ended up building `musl-libc` from source on another RHEL7 agent, committed the `.so` to our repo, and added that to the `LD_LIBRARY_PATH` in our Jenkinsfile, and actually got that working.

I did see some mentions that Rust could build to target an older GLibc ( https://kobzol.github.io/rust/ci/2021/05/07/building-rust-bi... ), so I'm curious if Next is going to use copies of SWC built that way for better compat or if it will require more workarounds on my part.

I'm very curious if the Next SWC binaries
