Greetings, Product Hunt! First things first, thank you Kevin @kwdinc for hunting Nimbella Commander, I’m thrilled to join this community for the very first time! I’m the maker and Chief Architect at Nimbella, survivor of two motorcycle accidents, serial entrepreneur and techy with 20 years of experience. As a developer myself and having worked with many development teams, I’ve always tried to simplify all the processes and make them as painless as possible. Startups have small teams and we are constantly working on increasing productivity through self-service. That’s how the idea of Commander was born. Simply follow 3 steps to create your first serverless commands with Commander: - Add Commander to Slack by clicking https://nimbella.com/commander/s... - Create your first command by typing - /nc command_create hello - Run the command by typing - /nc hello To get you started, we have several pre-built and open-sourced commands, simply cut-and-paste and run in Slack: /nc csm_install aws (manage resources in AWS) /nc csm_install do (manage resources in DigitalOcean) /nc csm_install ibm (manage resources in IBM Cloud & IBM Watson services) /nc csm_install github (interface with GitHub) /nc csm_install netlify (interface with Netlify) /nc csm_install shopify (access Shopify for inventory, orders, product sold) /nc csm_install corona_stats (get coronavirus statistics for any country or region) With Commander, you also get these additional security capabilities like access control, secret key management and audit trail. Nimbella Commander has forever free tier and we’re giving away today 90 days free Pro tier! (you just need to sign up and the 90 days will be automatically added to your account within 48 hours) Please ask our team any questions in comments and build Command Sets it with us in our DevOps Slack community: nimbella.com/slack

@eric_swildens thanks for detailed introduction! I would like to ask all users with ideas to create pre-built Command-Sets please reach out to me. We'll evaluate your proposal and would develop the set for you (for free!) Cheer, Yulia

@kwdinc @eric_swildens Awesome! Always good to see hunts from Kevin! I shared this with our team at @springroleinc We're building lots of Slack apps, I am guessing the devs in our team will find this quite useful. All the best, Eric and team 👍🏻

We use Commander's corona_stats Command-Set in our company, Freight Tiger. We run the command regularly in our slack channel to track the number of cases in our country, state and region. The advantage of running the Commander's command in Slack is that everyone within the channel can see the graph and stats of the command as opposed to checking it on any other website.

@sumana_g_sumi Thanks Sumana for your review. There are many other utility commands that we have open-sourced - please try them and let us know what else you would like to see.

Nimbella commander was easy to integrate with my Slack workspace. I liked not having to switch back and forth between terminal and slack since with the /nc command, there was a terminal like capability that Nimbella commander provided within Slack. From installation to running commands, I found the product to be intuitive and the documentation to be easy to follow.
Anshu Agarwal
@ashish_kakran Thanks Ashish for your review. There are many pre-built commands in our command registry - try them and give us your feedback!

This is a lifesaver! I have waited for something like this since forever... Saves a ton of time and is super easy and convenient to use
Yulia Aslamova
@madhur_singal thank you! We're happy to assist you for any queries!

I just checked the product now and here’s my feedback: 1. Very easy to install 2. Good security features 3. I like AWS pre-built commands, it feels useful Will discover the product more and share later more feedback
Anshu Agarwal
@mrravi26 Thanks Ravi for your review. Would love to get more feedback as you use it more.

Quality is a product of a conflict between programmers and clients. But by viewing this I will must Say The only software that's worth making is software that does something new. It just takes a few moments to create server less function. Excited to translate wishes into action
Eric Swildens
@anjan_kumar2 was you successful? You can try to automise any process for your team with the Commander

User friendly and secure with great functionality
Vishant Agarwal
@vprakash Thanks for checking and appreciating!
Ashwani Agarwal
Have tried this product for coronoa_stats. Was very useful and quick.
Eric Swildens
@ashwani_agarwal2 yes, it's trending now in Commander. Very easy to see the graph (growing, slowing and falling down) in any region/country. Thank you for upvoting us!
Julia Golubinskaya
I was blown away at how quickly I had functionality up and running in my Slack workspace. In less than 1 minute I generated a "hello world" function. Then one minute later I was able to install a command that translates the text I passed into it. Not having to worry about server logic or infrastructure really takes away a lot of the headaches of building Slack apps.
Vishant Agarwal
@julia_golubinskaya happy to know you liked it. Thanks, for giving it a try
Puneet
Congratulations @anshuagarwal on the launch. This looks very useful for developer productivity!
Anshu Agarwal
What new pre-built commands/integrations would you like to see?
Anup Parida
Seems to be a game-changer
Deepika Tripathi
Very useful and user friendly great vision guys.
Vishant Agarwal
@deepika_tripathi1 thanks you so much!
Karan Tanwar
I'm looking forward to building my own command set so I can share it with my team and other teams outside of my Slack workspace. It's really cool how I can share my ideas like that with other people who might find my functions useful.
Vishant Agarwal
@karan_tanwar Yes, and the best thing is that you just need to focus on your logic and Commander will take care of deployment.
Megha Bansal
If I'm going to use a Slack app, I need to know that security is taken seriously. I know some of these command sets I can add require me to use my API's and I was worried I'd have to make that public. But then I saw the documentation on how you use the "Secret Creator" to encrypted your API's so it prevents your API's from being public. I love that I can apply my APIs to commander an no one can actually see them!
Vishant Agarwal
@megha_bansal1 happy to know that you liked it!
Priyanka Trisal
I have teammates from all over the world who speak different languages. The translate command set that I installed is actually a pretty cool way to share our languages with one another! I literally just ran one command and I had this functionality for Slack.
Yulia Aslamova
@priyanka_trisal awesome to know that you like the tool! I'm happy to assist you with any queries!

Vishant Agarwal
@_ankit_poddar happy to hear you liked it. You can also build command sets and merge here https://github.com/nimbella/comm... so that it can be shared publicly.
Tanay Vakharia
A really cool product!! Really adds to the experience of using slack for development!!!

Very useful @eric_swildens. You mention Microsoft Teams. Does Commander work for Teams already?

@vishwas_manral We're going to be launching Commander for Teams very soon!
