We're thrilled to announce that Shuttle has reached its beta phase! After an incredibly successful alpha phase with over 4,000+ users, 4,000+ deployed projects, and 3,100+ GitHub stars, we're excited to share this major milestone with our community of developers and contributors.
Shuttle, a Rust-native cloud development platform, revolutionizes backend development by streamlining code development and infrastructure management directly from your code. Our goal is to provide the fastest backend development experience for Rust.
During our closed alpha phase, we experimented with different approaches and made a breakthrough with the use of macros for resource provisioning. With just a single line of code, developers can access everything they need, simplifying infrastructure management.
Why should you give Shuttle a go?
Navigating complex consoles and writing extensive YAML files for infrastructure configuration can be daunting, setting up and wiring all the infrastructure is a time-consuming and error-prone process. There is also a steep learning curve that can detract individuals and teams from focusing on core application logic. By utilizing Infrastructure from Code in a cloud development platform, we can address these challenges for the quickly growing community of Rust backend developers and teams.
Rust, known for its safety, concurrency, and performance, is an excellent choice for creating efficient and reliable applications. Incorporating annotations into the main function allows you to leverage code generation and resource provisioning, streamlining your workflow and minimizing manual infrastructure management.
This approach offers several benefits for various use cases, such as rapid prototyping and easy scaling of applications. Using Shuttle, you are simplifying the integration of development and operations processes, promoting collaboration and reducing the potential for errors since you are getting compile time insurance that you are getting the right infrastructure.
