Buddy looks nice as service, nice job. It doesn't seem expensive so that's also a bonus, I guess the real test is the reliability of the service.

How long have you been working on the service?

Also, sorry for this, but my OCD is taking over:

> your Pipeline got you covered // got -> has (unless you want to use slang, which could be an option)

Hi oblio,

Thanks for pointing out the errors, we'll fix that. We've been around for over a year with half a year of beta period before that.

The whole thing is really fast and stable: we chose Docker containers to run builds which ensures speed and compatibility across the whole team + contrary to some other CI/CD software we only deploy changed files which results in really fast deployments.

What languages/frameworks are you into?

Generally Java at work but Python and .NET when I get the chance. Is there any chance for Windows Docker containers? I know it's tricky and could be costly...

We've got dedicated build actions for Java, .NET/.NET Core and Python that you can use to build and test your app. What do you mean by Windows Docker containers exactly?

A container in which you can run Windows processes. I'll be honest and admit that I haven't done my homework on this and I don't even know if anyone does this.

Windows Containers only went GA fairly recently with Windows Server 2016, so it is unlikely that many are using them yet. I have yet to see any CI services that mention any plans to support windows containers or acknowledge their existence.

This is interesting. For now our containters are Linux based, we'll see where it's going to.
