• Native Git Support in Zed

  I'll have to try this out. I'm currently a huge GitKraken[1] fan. [1] https://gitkraken.com. - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago

• The Terrible UX of Git (2021)

  The Git CLI is terrifying and awful. It's far too easy to clobber your own work -- and that of others -- when the whole point of it was to prevent that. While you still need to really deeply understand several git concepts to use it, GitKraken[0] is the best GUI tool I've used in daily practice. It integrates well with git hosts and has an attractive and mostly comprehensible interface. Accordingly, it isn't free... - Source: Hacker News / almost 4 years ago

• Beautiful and crazy ways to see git-log?

  I like GitKraken partially because it was originally loosely based on the look/feel of Guitar Hero. Source: over 4 years ago

• How I became a Software Developer - 5 Years Later

  This experience was also invaluable because I had a walking fountain of knowledge sitting next to me and was really cool about answering my questions and pointing out all code style errors in countless PR reviews. I cannot count the amount of times he had to explain me the whole rebase workflow. What really helped me improve my Git knowledge was GitKraken and other similar tools. - Source: dev.to / over 4 years ago

• The End of Heroku: What It Means for Your Apps

  If you want to replicate Heroku's git push workflow while owning your infrastructure, Encore Cloud provisions managed resources in your own AWS or GCP account (powered by Encore, an open-source framework with 11k+ GitHub stars). You declare infrastructure as type-safe objects in your TypeScript or Go code, and Encore provisions the corresponding managed services. Everything else is standard TypeScript or Go. - Source: dev.to / 7 months ago

• An Update on Heroku

  I work at Encore so I'm biased. We've had a bunch of people migrate over from Heroku in the last couple years, especially after they killed the free tier. The main difference from other alternatives is that you don't write any infrastructure config - you just declare what you need in your code (databases, cron jobs, pubsub, etc) and Encore handles provisioning it in your AWS/GCP account (works locally as well... - Source: Hacker News / 7 months ago

• How to Deploy to AWS in 2026

  Most teams should start with the simplest option that meets their needs, then evolve if necessary. If you're building a backend application and don't want to become an infrastructure expert, Encore is worth trying. If you need maximum flexibility or multi-cloud support, Terraform is the industry standard. - Source: dev.to / 7 months ago

  Today, we're launching Encore Cloud 2.0, a big upgrade to our development platform that understands your code and automates the operations layer. - Source: dev.to / 9 months ago
