First impressions:
* I love this idea. This is basically what I use Digital Ocean for, and this reduces the steps.
* I would like to see bitbucket sign-in and keys support.
* I missed the server name field on my first pass. My eyes were drawn to the drop-downs. So when I hit the submit I got an error and, even then, it took me a moment to see where the servername should go.
* I probably wouldn't have noticed the "create a button" if I hadn't read about it here.
* I agree with others that a "destroy" option would be nice.
* The button is cool.
This whole approach makes me want to start embedding cloud-init scripts in all my repositories. But then I loose using cloud-init for pulling down my personal dotfiles and preferred packages. I'll have to think about how to solve that.
Great idea! I hope this takes off.
- OwainX 10y agoThanks. A lot of this feedback I've been hearing from others today. We'll be updating the serer name field to stand out visually better and doing updates to the home page and informational pages to both highlight the button capability and better present details like pricing. An "expire now" option for servers on the free plan will be in place this weekend which will allow you to delete a free server before it expires.
