Hey, could be interesting. I really like that you have a free trial without requiring CC details.<p>Two small login related comments:<p>- I would have suggested launching with MFA not just being available - but enforced for all users.<p>- The Login with Github option requires that you provide full write access to all your public and private repositories, I think this is a bit much and would put off a lot of people.<p>"This application will be able to read and write all public and private repository data. This includes the following:"<p><pre><code> Code
Issues
Pull requests
Wikis
Settings
Webhooks and services
Deploy keys
Collaboration invites</code></pre>
What does it actually do?<p>From the front page I expected maybe some web interface for doing various tasks, such as Nix package management or setting up Let's Encrypt, etc, but judging from the docs, everything should be done via standard Nix/NixOS commands in command line. So, I'm sorry, what service Shipnix actually provides, apart from initial setup of the server with NixOS and SSH keys, that would justify paying monthly? At least it's not clear from the docs.
Hi! I am the creator of Shipnix and just saw this post on the front page :)<p>Hope you find it interesting!<p>I'm reading comments coming in and will try to answer your questions as best I can!
This is really interesting! Do you need a full NixOS configuration to deploy? Or is it possible to deploy projects that just use Nixpkgs?<p>If it requires some migration, would love to see a guide on how to wrap a Nixpkgs project in a barebones NixOS config
Whats the added value of NixOS over go strait to Digital Ocean and make your deployments there?
Digital Ocean have a very neat and intuitive UI and their CLI is also very straight forward...
