Hello, author here. I did not plan to have a wide announcement today tbh. This is the repo: https://github.com/windmill-labs/windmill

I have my YC interview in 10 minutes and wanted to OSS it before. Agree it lacks a lot of polishing, but that will be done in about 2 weeks :)

JS/TS through Deno is coming in a week, I am currently working on a draft pull request for it.

Really happy to answer all the questions after my interview :)

(I host the demo on a small hetzner node, please be gentle to it, I will scale it up asap :))

PS: Since it's HN: The backend is all in Rust and the feature I am most proud of is automatic parameters and dependency inference for locking the dependency versions and generating the frontend of your app by analyzing the scripts using simple but surprisingly good heuristics :)



Update: I GOT IN!!!


Hell yeah! I’m drinking a bottle of red wine to celebrate your victory.


Congrats! We currently use rundeck to ssh into servers to run python automations. This looks to be a much more elegant solution.


Congrats! You are already on the front page, and your demo day is miles away. That is awesome.

EDIT: Months away - sorry, I am flying on spirit atm.


Congrats!! That's awesome! :D

When did you submit your application? And when did they notify you about the interview?

You applied as a solo founder? That's a huge stamp of approval.


Awesome! Would love to hear more about the business model you're thinking of. Can't wait for Deno JS/TS!


Now you must share a detailed account of your interview! Congrats!


Congratulations!


Congrats!

Congrats on the (unintentional) launch and on getting into YC!

We’re working on something similar at https://www.airplane.dev/ - same scripts-to-apps approach, schedules, trigger from Slack, etc.

Would love to chat sometime and compare notes if you’re up for it - ravi@airplane.dev


Yes of course. I would lie if I said I was not aware of your existence. Your product and team is dope and I will reach out to you!


What did you build the website with? It looks really nice and I’m looking for something I could use with my project. [1]

Good luck with the interview!!


Does the script analysis support bash scripts?
