Hey there! I really like your service. What's your tech stack?

  Mainly Rails. Some Go.

    Cool. What did you use Go for that rails couldn't do (or do well/scale), if you mind me asking?
    • ezekg 4y ago
      First version of the distribution API was a Go microservice. But that microservice is now deprecated and its replacement was rolled into the main Rails app. That microservice streamed large files (so I went with Go), but I nixed the streaming and Go was no longer needed. The CLI is also written in Go.

        Thanks! Have you contemplated making the backend open source or at least source-available ("Look but don't touch", you may only use the hosted service, etc)? Would love to take a look at the implementation

          *looks around* I haven’t announced it yet -- but yes. Working towards open sourcing everything. :)
