Doing one thing well is not a winning advice. You can do multiple things, it really depends on the execution and other factors. They are doing one that is workflows and doing it well.
- sisve 3y agoAlso they are using postgres for everything. I think that is a good example of picking one thing that you know very well and using that to the limits. But i do agree that windmill is doing so many things that the elevator pitch need some work. But a lot of companies are trying to do the same. So i do not think people will think of workflow engine + online ide + app builder as a natural grouping in 5 years
- MuffinFlavored 3y agoI don't really understand what a "workflow" is / what it means. Like GitHub Actions is a workflow, but it's a convoluted YAML wrapper around shell scripts. Is a workflow shell scripts? I'm going to guess no. I'm going to guess it's "code". So... why is a workflow code but code isn't a workflow? Windmill is a "workflow (code?)" orchestrator?
- jagtstronaut 3y agoYeah I assumed this was a camunda competitor (a bpmn workflow product), but it seems like it is not that.
