Cloud, why so difficult? 🤷‍♀️

This page summarizes the projects mentioned and recommended in the original post on dev.to

Our great sponsors
  • SurveyJS - Open-Source JSON Form Builder to Create Dynamic Forms Right in Your App
  • WorkOS - The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS
  • InfluxDB - Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale
  • jsii

    jsii allows code in any language to naturally interact with JavaScript classes. It is the technology that enables the AWS Cloud Development Kit to deliver polyglot libraries from a single codebase!

  • To "meet developers where they are" is a beautiful tenet of AWS, and of the CDK, and inspired us to create awesome technology such as JSII and constructs.

  • dagger

    Application Delivery as Code that Runs Anywhere (by dagger)

  • And suddenly, it's almost painfully obvious where all the pain came from. Cloud applications today are simply a patchwork of disconnected pieces. I have a compiler for my infrastructure, another for my functions, another for my containers, another for my CI/CD pipelines. Each one takes its job super seriously, and keeps me safe and happy inside each of these machines, but my application is not running on a single machine anymore, my application is running on the cloud.

  • SurveyJS

    Open-Source JSON Form Builder to Create Dynamic Forms Right in Your App. With SurveyJS form UI libraries, you can build and style forms in a fully-integrated drag & drop form builder, render them in your JS app, and store form submission data in any backend, inc. PHP, ASP.NET Core, and Node.js.

  • constructs

    Define composable configuration models through code

  • research

    Language research sketchbook (by winglang)

  • We have been working on Wing for almost a year now, and I am excited to invite you to check it out and let me know what you think. While still in Alpha and not yet ready for production use, it's already possible to build some real applications with it.

  • wing

    A programming language for the cloud ☁️ A unified programming model, combining infrastructure and runtime code into one language ⚡

  • Check out https://github.com/winglang/wing for more details.

  • aws-cdk

    The AWS Cloud Development Kit is a framework for defining cloud infrastructure in code

  • I am not one to build programming languages on a whim. In fact, I've spent the last five years building the AWS CDK, which is a multi-language library that addresses some of the challenges I am talking about by allowing developers to define cloud infrastructure using their favorite programming language.
