The Dockerfile and docker compose support looks great! Are you planning to add support for deploying to Kubernetes or Lambda?
@david_gallardo1 - we currently support docker compose support for running both node and django with MySQL/PostgreSQL/SQLite databases on your local dev machine or in production.
We have plans to add support for generating the scripts required to enable single command deployment to EKS / GKE and AWS Lambda / Google cloud functions.
Our goal with Imagine is to allow you to focus on writing code for your business logic and not worry about the various boilerplate code around deployment, CI/CD, database setup etc.
This tool is freaking cool! 🤓❤️
I work developing applications for startups and this is really useful. It saves development time, reduces possible bugs, and generates quality code.
I'm very excited to see how this interesting project progresses!
@patamembrillo Thats great and glad you see the potential. A lot of bugs in software come when writing boring / repetitive / boilerplate software. That is what we want to eliminate with Imagine. So engineers can focus on writing code that is truly distinct in their product and also on the difficult computer science problems VS reinventing the wheel.
Looks much more powerful than Express application generator. Does it support Typescript?
Thanks @ofito - yes, we will be releasing typescript support very soon!
As an early alpha user, Imagine helped save me a lot of time in setting up my last Node project. Would love to see support for Auth0 integration and React API calling support
@jose_juan_jj_ Thanks JJ! We loved having you as an early use! You're spot on with the Auth0 and React API calling feature recommendations - these are coming very, very soon :)
Looks very interesting! A lot of development time can be reduced with this tool in the initial phase of a software project with high quality. I'd love to see the CI/CD integration for deploying applications.
@alejandro_gomez5 Thanks Alejandro. We currently have support for Docker and Github CI, and plan to add support for more CI/CD providers in the future.
The dashboard looks really great. I loved how it generates and deploys the code almost instantly. And the Swagger instance is really handy to test the API endpoints.
I'd love to try Imagine for my next side project to save time. Especially when the authentication and Typescript support is ready.
This is great! No need to spend more time looking for templates. With Imagine you can configure your own one depending on what you need. Powerful and flexible 😀
@kharenzze Thanks! we currently don't support adding your own templates but its something we are considering. Our code generator is built with a powerful meta language that allows us to easily use custom templates during the code generation.
This is much more powerful than the regular expression based approach used by traditional code generators like cookie-cutter, yeoman etc.
Thanks to this tool, the start-up of any project is not rocket science anymore.
Are you thinking to add integrations with Git-based hosting services like Github? Also, I would like to continue using the tool during the development of some way.
@93sauu We are working to support on-going use as your project evolves. We are also going to add Github integration which would allow creating a Pull Request with the generated code from within the web ui itself.
What has typically been the most difficult part in starting new projects for you?
It's great how you can visually configure all the features without having to write thousands of lines of code. Generating the deployment, REST or GraphQL interfaces and also a swagger with a simple click is incredible.
I consider it an essential tool to save a lot of time at the beginning of projects.
Top!
This tool is fantastic! Very intuitive and fast. I am sure that I will use it for my future projects!
@david_lorca_campos Thanks we look forward to your feedback as you use this in projects. Which features would you want us to add which could help you during the first 2 weeks of your project?
This really looks like a great time saver, but also helps with making sure everyone is respecting certain coding practices! Hope you guys manage to develop it even further!
@ante_dagelic Thanks Ante. We intend to continue developing this and help in auto-generating the boilerplate code for various domains like authentication, notifications, payments, deployment, various types of testing etc.
Your point about best practices is also interesting. One of the benefits of using a code generator like Imagine is that it enforces consistency of code and process across the entire organization.
@petramika Thanks so much - excited to share future versions with you!
This definitely is going to change the game! I can't imagine a tool to raise a development workspace like this, so fast and clean!
Freaking a good job!
@juanprm Thanks a lot Juan - look forward to any feature suggestions that you may have!
Awesome 🤓 you can save a lot of time with this tool, I hope see the option to make a repo instead of download the zip file, Is cool the time that update the changes in the files while you build the app, excellent work 🌟 as little feedback when you are working in the models and keys if you delete appears an error, maybe could be deleted in waterfall if is deleted a key or similar, but is little that detail.
Really cool stuff! Happy to share this with the django CMS community and to follow the projects progress! Keep up the good work!
@nicolai_ridani1 Really appreciate your support Nicolai - both here and with the Django CMS community!
