I didn’t take code or reverse-engineer anything from that Reddit project, and I wasn’t aware of it when I started.
I’ve been a long-term k9s user, and the motivation was simply: “I wish I had something like k9s, but for AWS.” That’s a common and reasonable source of inspiration.
A terminal UI for AWS is a broad, well-explored idea. Similar concepts don’t imply copied code. In this case, even the UIs are clearly different—the interaction model and layout are not the same.
The implementation, architecture, and UX decisions are my own, and the full commit history is public for anyone who wants to review how it evolved.
If there’s a specific piece of code you believe was copied, I’m happy to look at it. Otherwise, it’s worth checking what someone actually built before making accusations based on surface-level assumptions.
I also care security part, but this is just beginning :) New features will be added iteratively based on community requests, and it seems there are plenty of good requirements in HN thread, thanks
I'm excited to announce the launch of Rapidapp, a new SaaS platform for managing PostgreSQL databases in the cloud.
The main motivation is here to provide the simplest way to spin up a PostgreSQL database with powerful integration.
Rapidapp allows you to create and use PostgreSQL database in less than 1 second. We also offer various integration like Spring Autoconfiguration, Terraform provider etc..
We're currently in early access and would love your feedback. You can sign up for life-time free plan which is limited to 1 database / 20 MB data.
I gave a talk about Practical Raft Consensus with its theory and supportive code examples, any feedback from distributed system lovers would be valuable
