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
  • airbyte

    The leading data integration platform for ETL / ELT data pipelines from APIs, databases & files to data warehouses, data lakes & data lakehouses. Both self-hosted and Cloud-hosted.

  • congrats on launching Kyle and Jacob (hi Kyle!)

    wondering what kinds of projects are/are not suitable for this. the only context i have is from working at open source devtool companies that provide docker builds for people to pull down. might speed up the release process slightly. i suspect my company https://github.com/airbytehq/airbyte/ could benefit. but is it also useful for internal usage?

  • dagger

    Application Delivery as Code that Runs Anywhere (by dagger)

  • Dagger is Apache 2, no signup required: https://github.com/dagger/dagger#readme

    I struggle to think of what I would need a SaaS service to run BuildKit for me unless they're trying to take on GitHub Actions's compute side or whatever

  • 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.

  • trellis

    Write Dockerfiles and CI pipelines in TypeScript. (by charliermarsh)

  • Another unusual alternative is to model your test running _as_ a Docker build. It's what I ended up doing in Trellis, which supports Depot as a runner (https://github.com/charliermarsh/trellis): running the linter check is modeled as "build the image, then add a `cargo clippy` RUN command as the last layer".

  • build-push-action

    GitHub Action to build and push Docker images with Depot (by depot)

  • It should be just as as straightforward with Depot as well - we have a depot/build-push-action (https://github.com/depot/build-push-action) that accepts the same inputs as docker/build-push-action to make it easy (under the hood, both use BuildKit).

        steps:

  • buildkit

    concurrent, cache-efficient, and Dockerfile-agnostic builder toolkit

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.
