We've been positioning around the deploy a bit recently cause people got really excited by it, but that's not really what Dark is about. Dark is about removing all accidental complexity from coding, starting with backends. That's pretty vague, but that's honestly how it started: this shit is too hard, what can we do to remove all this shitty stuff that we do. Setting up infra is one of the three areas that we think is really shit, and that's a large part of Dark. You don't have to deal with infra at all (including DBs, queues, etc); it's all built-in. Speed of deployment doesn't bother some people, esp those with smaller projects; on big teams it's a massive problem. People got excited about deployless in dark because it seemed like it had a credible vision for how it could be reduced. We been talking about why we built cause we haven't finished building it yet. We're announcing our move to "private beta" (from "private alpha") on Sep 16th, so that's the kind of stage we're at. We'll be showing how Dark works then.
