Cloud Run GPUs, now GA, makes running AI workloads easier for everyone
https://github.com/claceio/clace is project I am building which gives a Cloud Run type deployment experience on your own VMs. For each app, it supports scale down to zero containers (scaling up beyond one is in being built).
The authorization and auditing features are designed for internal tools, any app can be deployed otherwise.

Show HN: First AppServer built for deploying containerized apps
I have been building https://github.com/claceio/clace, an appserver for deploying containerized apps. Docs are at https://clace.io/.
There are many deployment tools focussed on simplifying containerized apps deployment. Most of them are built as wrappers on top of Nginx/Traefik/Caddy etc. Clace is a single binary which implements a web server and an app server. This allows Clace to implement features like OAuth and atomic updates which are not possible for other solutions. Clace focuses on making it easy for teams to deploy Streamlit/Gradio/FastHTML type apps with no config required.
Clace has a imperative CLI and it has a declarative GitOps interface. For example https://github.com/claceio/clace/blob/main/examples/utils.st... is a config which defines seven apps. Using Starlark (python like) for config allows easy config without the YAML insanity.
Running a command like
clace sync schedule --approve --promote github.com/claceio/clace/examples/utils.star -
Tilt: K8s for Dev
Starlark does allow for much more concise and powerful config specification. I am building https://github.com/claceio/clace, which is an application server for teams to deploy internal tools.
Clace uses Starlark for defining apps, instead of something like YAML. https://github.com/claceio/clace/blob/main/examples/utils.st... is a config file which defines around seven apps (apps are downloaded and deployed directly from git).
Clace uses Starlark for defining app level routing rules also. This avoids the need to use a nginx like DSL for routing.

The appeal of serving your web pages with a single process
Having a single process web/app server simplifies things operationally. I am building https://github.com/claceio/clace, which is an application server for teams to deploy internal tools. It runs as a single process, which implements the webserver (TLS certs management, request routing, OAuth etc) as well as an app server for deploying apps developed in any language (managing container lifecycle, app upgrades through GitOps etc).

Deploy from local to production (self-hosted)
Another option you could consider is a tool I have been building for deploying webapps across a team. https://github.com/claceio/clace has the usual deployment related functionality like gitops, TLS certs.
It has some unique features like supporting OAuth authentication for the apps, staging env for each app (code and config changes are staged before deployment), supporting declarative update, supporting hypermedia based apps natively etc.

Gixy: Nginx Configuration Static Analyzer
I have been building a platform [1] which makes it easy to deploy internal tools. Instead of taking the config file approach, it allows you to install each app at a unique location (domain name + url path). Within its location, the app owns all the URLs and can managing request routing without requiring a global config update.
The advantage is that new app installations cannot interfere with an existing app. I wrote more about this approach at https://clace.io/blog/webserver/

Starlark Programming Language
I have been building an internal tools development and deployment platform [1]. It is built in Go, using Starlark for configuration and API business logic.
Starlark has been great to build with. You get the readability of having a simple subset of python, without python's dependency management challenges. It is easily extensible with plugin APIs. Concurrent API performance is great without the python async challenges.
One challenge wrt using Starlark as an general purpose embedded scripting language is that it does not support usual error handling features. There are no exceptions and no multi value return for error values, all errors result in an abort. This works for a config language, where a fail-fast behavior is good. But for a general purpose script, you need more fine grained error handling. Since I am using Starlark for API logic only, I came up with a user definable error handling behavior. This uses thread locals to keep track of error state [2], which might not work for more general purpose scripting use cases.

Dependency management fatigue, or why I forever ditched React for Go+Htmx+Templ
I have been building a platform https://github.com/claceio/clace for teams to develop Hypermedia based internal tools. One of the main criteria for the technology stack and the feature set has been making sure apps can be maintained easily, after six months and after six years.
Settled on using Go HTML templates, Starlark and HTMX. Go has a great track record of not breaking backward compatibility. Go templates are widely used by ops teams, any breaking changes there will cause ops teams to revolt. Starlark is somewhat widely used by build systems (like Bazel), any breaking changes there will cause build engineers to rise up in arms. The HTMX 1.9 to 2.0 upgrade was also painless, no changes required in my test apps. Only change required was to update the way the websocket extension is resolved.

Rails is better low code than low code
This is what I am trying to solve for with https://github.com/claceio/clace.
Allow internal tools to be built with regular frameworks, while making it easy to add gitops, SSO, secrets management etc which are required for internal tools.
