Cool! Java is coming soon for Config.ly. I think we view having many client libraries as an advantage over something like Spring Cloud Config that I believe only has Java implementation / HTTP -- since many folks have clients in severa

If you try to fetch values and there is no connection nor ached values, the client won't be able to hit Config.ly's servers. I think it's a good idea to implement Config.ly with graceful degradation if you are concerned abou

This is a great idea!!! It's on our roadmap. I really like the JSON builder that Firebase has. You can also upload other types like Strings, Numbers and booleans.

That's great feedback - thanks! Right now, there is no QPS cap despite the marketing copy (hehe).

It's very easy to do that. The data stored in Config.ly are key:value pairs and can be a JSON string/array, String, Number or Boolean. So you can create as many keys as you'd like. I'm not sure if that answers your quest

Hi. Today, our clients fetch values on-demand (so, not necssarily on app startup - it's when you call configly.get(key)). The values are then cached on the clients according to a TTL you can set yourself. Latency was around ~200ms (I b

I’m Jeremy, cofounder of Config.ly. It’s like a CMS for your static variables / copy / constants so you can easily update them from a web UI instead of deploying code. We’re software engineers and saw that the source of many bugs,

I worked at a big, high-growth tech company on a product team and saw first hand how much of a challenge cleaning up / joining data was. This seems like a really novel and useful solution to a big problem (and well timed on the heels o

Cool! This sounds like a lighter-touch way to do it. A long time ago, to help with the filter issue, I went through a phase of signing up for services as (mygmail)+(theirdomain)@gmail.com (though perhaps it would have been smarter to do +sp

This is one of the most clever and engaging games I’ve ever played. When myself and some friends discovered it, it ate up hundreds of hours of our time in the matter of a few months .... per person. It’s basically visual programming with mo

I have struggled with falling asleep a lot. This has been helpful recently: 1. 2-3 hours before bed, put away all electronics (including phone and TV/netflix) 2. Read a _real_ book for 1-2 hours 3. If I can't fall asleep, I put on

There was no take home test for me. It was a 45 minute multiple choice test, a timed coding problem after that which you could skip if you did well on the test, and then a 3 hour or so chat that involved an hour of coding something and vari

Really loved how all the info was on a single page and was easily scrollable for a click glance. Pagination can cause such a slow experience. The interspersed moving GIFs were a nice touch as well. I'll add places I've been to tha

Weird, was just there a month ago for two weeks and used https://www.expressvpn.com/ with no issue. I mostly cruised reddit / the internet so maybe there wasn't enough volume.
