we're at https://less.build https://less.build if you want to take a peek -- we will look at adding S3 support! :)
- sgammon 3y agoside note i am happy anytime build caching is on the front page of hckrnews for any reason
- a_t48 3y agoI'm all for faster builds...but how does your product differ from using something like https://ccache.dev/manual/4.7.html#_remote_storage_backends https://ccache.dev/manual/4.7.html#_remote_storage_backends ? (I ask specifically because you advertise being a drop in ccache replacement, or similar)
- sgammon 3y agowe are drop-in compatible with ccache, in the sense that you can plug ccache right in (as an HTTP backend), and gain features like authorization policies, analytics, and global caching backed by Cloudflare. that's where we are beginning and then we're working to add spicier features on from there. but first and foremost, we want to serve the ccache/gradle cache crowd with a fantastic protocol-agnostic backend which "just works" and pays for itself in terms of time saved. and thanks for asking :) we are very new
- a_t48 3y agoAh, cool. Not my usecase, but neat all the same.
