Inability to build a business easily nor allow others to build one. The union culture is way too strong. There is a joke that the Kerala model of development requires a rich oil state nearby.
There are hundreds of people selling pre-built components, landing pages, templates etc. This at least gets you up and running and not stressing over design. As a dev who lacks design sense, this was immensely helpful.
Other option as sibling points out is to use bolt or lovable and give it explicit instructions on what kind of design to use. For example, with lovable, try this prompt "use neo brutalist design."
This is a massive insight for me. That entire landing page is a template with small edits. No wonder it looks so good. You nailed it. Thanks for this. I think the last time I looked into templates I wasn't impressed with what I found, and I think I underestimated what was available now in 2024.
If you don't have a lot of services to access, you can hard code the tailscale IP address in /etc/hosts.
My personal /etc/hosts is at 10 services all hard coded since the internal IP address of a machine on tailscale is static. Way cheaper and easier to deal with than setting up a separate DNS resolver.
Of course that won't work if you have hundreds or thousands of services to work with.
If I may ask which model are you using? I have tried OCR'ing my bank statements in AI studio and the results have been less than optimal. Specifically it has a tendency to ignore certain instructions combined with screwing up the order.
Some pointers on what worked for you would be greatly appreciated.
After reading the book my understanding was to not even ask this question. See if they have already tried to solve the problem by looking for another app or going to excruciating lengths to solve it another way. If yes, then they will probably buy your product.
Jaypee Group's failure is not the same as ghost cities of China. Ghost cities of China were fully built but people refused to move in. India has the opposite problem. Most people want to move in to the projects but the builder defaulted and could not complete the project.
India's half built cities are more of a financial fraud problem rather than people problem.
so in a quick glance, this does not look like nginx/caddy. It is not a binary you download, install and just configure to talk to your upstream servers. Rather a set of packages which you assemble to fulfill a particular use case. You basically end up writing a "new" reverse proxy just for your use case.
Not sure how useful this would be for anyone except very large businesses or someone like cloudflare itself.
It's mentioned briefly in the Cloudflare blog post. I'd expect that if you're a current nginx or other proxy, River is what you'd want as an alternative.
One of the big things I'm excited about in the River plan is the ability to use wasm for scripting, which should make it relatively easy to extend.
One reason I'm excited about this is that it appears to let you write arbitrary routing logic into a layer 7 proxy. This is something we had to build for https://plane.dev and it would have been nicer to use something like this, but we couldn't find anything like it at the time.
From their quickstart and user guide it doesn't look too verbose. For anyone whose config has reached the point where you are wondering whether it would be easier to express in code, this might be a good product to try.
Or if you run shared hosting or some other scenario where you are effectively maintaining your server configuration twice: once for the actual server and once in the database for your dashboard and other services. This would allow you to just read the config from the canonical source, instead of risking bugs when the two configs diverge.
No one can say for sure how the entire thing is going to turn out. As investors, there's no harm in placing multiple bets as long as a small number of those bets end up giving an outsized return.
