- pg_is_a_butt 10y agothe advertising geniuses behind it probably thinks it's crazy to offer a demo for any reason other than to directly get more accounts registered.
- danfromberlin 10y agoMaybe I can also share a bit more insight into what's actually going on behind the scenes. When a user on stacktile creates a workflow, we are also executing a linux container environment on their behalf. This container provides the interactive environment to run the code in the workflow, but it's also a resource (and operational cost) which need to limit at the moment.
- Turbots 10y agothis is not necessary for your pitch and adds unnecessary load and cost... During the pitch, you need to explain your users how it works (like you did in your comments), not ACTUALLY start up the containers... You can show the explicit startup of the containers when users REALLY want to dive deeper in your product. You're just adding more cost and load on your website because of this
- iamjason89 10y agoThat and for those of us seeing the notification that their server is backed up, I can't even see it in action right now. Seems like this should have been cached
- simple10 10y agoI tried it a couple of times. You only get prompted to sign up if the system is overloaded and it dumps you into the waiting queue. Otherwise, it goes right into the demo which creates a clickable preview to auto enter commands or you can type directly into the shell. This looks promising. Nice work Dan and Stacktile team. Looking forward to seeing what the community does with it.
- danfromberlin 10y agothanks for the kind words
