How do YOU want to see Peas developed? #7

The sudden and massive response to Peas has been unexpected. I'm deeply flattered and hugely excited. Thank you. It's clear that Peas resonates with people and so it's paramount that I work with that. I don't have an exact and unalterable plan, so I want to take this opportunity to get as much feedback about what people hope to get from Peas.

I'd like to hear from both technical people and non-technical people, whether you have years of experience or are starting out in the field. I'd like to hear about what you don't want (for example a couple of people on HN expressed a dislike for Chef Server, which I happen to agree with) just as much as what you do want. I want to hear big and small ideas.

Personally, the things I'd like to see are less to do with PaaS-specific features and more to do with the conditions that inspire healthy living software: comprehensive and engaging documentation, a culture that inspires test writing, lively discussions and not taking ourselves too seriously. All of which will of course lead to the added bonus of creating the highest quality PaaS available to mortals.

awkward silence

I'll just be at the back quietly coding then...

@tombh haha. i will reply you here. it will be cool to get it up and running easily on either AWS or DO with clear documentation on how to do it.

i think you are on the right track on providing good documentation.

Thanks @siong1987 :) I've started on a Dockerfile that will make it easy to run Peas anywhere, both locally and on VPSs like AWS and DO. But later I also hope to natively support cloud providers using fog.io
