I can't help but completely agree. I could see an abstraction like this working really well on top of a simpler foundation, and I desperately think that's what the industry needs.

But as it stands, on top of Helm/Kubernetes/Terraform/AWS/GCP/etc., there are so many dragons.

I wonder if this tool could be repurposed to leverage much simpler cloud concepts that inherently require less operational skills to maintain.

There are definitely a lot of dragons, but there are also a lot of teams that use these tools and need help slaying those dragons :)

We chose to focus on IaC because we think general coding agents are going to take a long time to solve all the edge cases well.

I do think a similar tool built on something simpler would be really interesting. I’ve been tempted to try this with our previous product: https://docs.launchflow.com/
