patricknegri··on Show HN: Shpyrd – A new type of cloud for AI era
Not now. We are studying if we would put a git server and then you can see and pull the changes, but we aren't there yet.
patricknegri··on Do you see departments at your company building small apps?
"They have a really standard lifecycle: They get built. They work for a small department. If it stops there, it just keeps running until the person who built it moves on, then it gets trashed and replaced with something else. Or, if it grows beyond the department, that person's life starts to get taken up in maintaining it, it fails to scale, and IT takes it over (or replaces it)." This is how it was happening, its very different now and that's the reason why I'm asking this.

Since you think I'm new to this, lemme get you some background. I'm an experienced founder, built companies with 150+ employees and raised capital from big names from industry (https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2020-10-20/goldman-b...), figured on TechCrunch also. So you need to stop assume people are new to things just because they formatted their post to be more beginner friendly ;).

Things changed a lot. With AI, you can plug-in seamless between the deploy and the actual hosting, you can automate putting it online in the local private subnet, you can even change code in the middle of deploy using AI and applying local best practices, change the database and any underlying implementation and stuff like that. This isn't happening your entire 30+ year career, sorry Dave.

PS: The company I was referring too is one of which I founded, and before moving to the board it had like 80+ apps built from departments. And I know other founders with exactly the same behavior.

Thank you for your time

I like those new terms. It's kinda new but we are seeing a boost in "Small Software". Companies are building those in large scale now.

Take a look at this presentation: https://www.shpyrd.io/small-software-manifesto

you can check the logs using the dashboard or directly asking for AI

you can talk directly from claude/codex or you can manage using the dashboard

TNX!

hmm, not that easy... I will think of a tool to migrate, its more focused for new deploys than existing ones and sincerely, after work to put it online I would not give much effort moving it, maybe because of costs...

just say to your AI: "rollback to our previous version". You could also talk to it and say: "any errors on our logs and metrics right now? can you relate if we are having problems with this new version?"

everything you create with AI can be easily deployed the same way you used to create it.

Thanks! We put a lot of work into this

Just install our plugin or mcp and type: "Deploy to shpyrd". It will handle everything, we intercept the installation (deploy) using IA to fix code, add 12factors, add databases (postgres), attach and put it online.
patricknegri··on Show HN: Shpyrd – A new type of cloud for AI era
After being in tech for about 25 years, I started to teach a lot of friends on how to use IA to create their sites and apps. A lot them started to create a lot of cool of personal and career boost apps that improved their lifes and productivity. Then I started to see a pattern. After a while, almost all of them started to text or call me for help on how to put those creations on Internet. I teached them on how to use vercel/netlify and supabase to make it happen. Some of them created apps better than a lot of developers that worked for me in previous businesses. So I decided to create a new type of cloud, aimed for the AI era, where instead of having a lot of tools and setup to put something online, you could just install a single tool and that tool would take care of everything, even intercepting your deploy in fly to fix it and put it online.

Meet shpyrd.io, the "vibe-cloud" solution for this new awesome era.

patricknegri··on Ask HN: What is up with wrangler deploy
I asked a friend and was intermittent only. Since you are trying to deploy, I would like you to invite to test shpyrd.io, it aims to make it easier to deploy because all tools are connected to IA, so your Claude/Codex/IA can debug logs and do the fix.
