Writing clean code can get as repetitive as bricklaying, use a machine labourer

Nothing about who created this or what tech is involved. In fact, this page has SFA but marketing nonsense as is the linked webpage at lightning-lambdas.

    thanks for posting the video demo link, you probably want to skip the first video in the play list if you want to see the app (and not marketing nonsense)

But did you use unitily to make the unitily.com webpage
- rowland_street 7y ago
  Not yet, but this is definitely a goal. Lightning Lambdas is the main app around the unitily tech at the moment, we're keeping the scope as small as possible to start with (AWS). We hope to build and Lightning Lambdas with itself soon.

This seems more like a Show HN than an article. The domain is only a month old.

  Yeah perhaps it should, Im new to hacker news and maybe missing the etiquette.

Not to sound like a pedant, but the small spelling mistakes would scare me away if I were a potential customer. > but even the most beautiful code is useless if it takes to long to write! "too long" > Tansparent "transparent" > visualiase "visualize" There are probably others, I only skimmed. Anyway, the visualization of connecting inputs to outputs is pretty cool and I hope that it's intuitive enough to bring simple programming to more people.

  yeah no excuse for not running it through a spellchecker, thanks

So, it's a boilerplate generator that you'd use instead of a library providing an abstraction layer?
- rowland_street 7y ago
  yes, but our definition of boilerplate is probably wider than usual. e.g. class definition, constructor injection, junit test layout: @beforeAll, @beforeEach etc. Main method/entrypoint construction of all units. As well as package management deployment etc. i.e. we consider the majority of your application project to be boilerplate, all except your core business logic. This allows you to generate pretty much everything other than your core functions.
