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

    A showcase for an CDK Pipeline written in Java that builds and deploys a Flutter application to Web

  • I've been able to gain some experience with the tools while working on a few projects, including cdk-codepipeline-flutter and here is a list of things that I believe could be improved. My main focus here is on CodePipeline, as it serves as the glue between all of the other tools.

  • aws-codebuild-docker-images

    Official AWS CodeBuild repository for managed Docker images http://docs.aws.amazon.com/codebuild/latest/userguide/build-env-ref.html

  • Docker Images provided by the CodeBuild team should be updated regularly and should support all "modern" toolkits. The open source project has some activity, but an issue for supporting newer Android versions is now open for some time...

  • 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.

  • aws-codedeploy-agent

    Host Agent for AWS CodeDeploy

  • AWS CodeDeploy is a fully managed deployment service that automates software deployments to various compute services, such as Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2), Amazon Elastic Container Service (ECS), AWS Lambda, and your on-premises servers.

  • aws-cdk

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

  • When setting up a CI/CD pipeline on AWS CodePipeline, this would be easier to use if additional best practices and templates would be available as part of the tool itself. AWS is starting to promote a new Open Source project called "Deployment Pipeline Reference Architecture". this is a step in the right direction, but it needs to be expanded by other flavours of a deployment pipeline. Also the code examples need to be improved, made up to date and needs to include all languages supported by AWS CDK. This is critical to allow an efficient adoption of the different tools.
