Cloud development
for humans
The next generation of cloud development framework.
Turn a simple configuration file and application code into a production-grade application running on 
.
Go from 1000’s lines of configuration to 10’s.
One tool for all your apps
Build anything. From simple web apps to complicated data-processing pipelines.
For developers, by developers
Make your development process fast and enjoyable. Get rid of all the bottlenecks.
Production ready
Get reliable, scalable, secure and cost-effective infrastructure. With no extra effort.
DevOps-free
Spend time building applications. Let Stacktape take care of the rest.
Configurable and extensible
Don’t get limited by your development tools. Customize everything to your needs.
Serverless
Scale up to 1,000s of concurrent workloads. Pay only for what you use.
how it works
Stacktape is a command line tool that runs on your machine.
Stacktape turns a simple configuration file and your application code into a production-ready application running on .
It handles infrastructure management, code packaging, application deployments, domain and secret management, monitoring, logging, testing, debugging and much more.
Stacktape also comes with aVS code editor extension.
1. Configure your stack
Stacktape configuration can be written using configuration languages (YAML, JSON) or programming languages (Javascript, Typescript, Python). It allows you to configure every aspect of your stack, including:
- infrastructure resources (workloads running your code, SQL & NoSQL databases, API Gateways, etc.)
- source code packaging behavior
- deployment behavior
- hooks
- credentials, secrets, policies, domains and more
Example stacktape.yml configuration file
stackName: my-application
resources:
mainGateway:
Type: http-api-gateway
apiServer:
Type: container-workload
Properties:
containers:
- name: api-container
imageConfig:
filePath: src/main.ts
environment:
- name: DB_CONNECTION_STRING
value: connectionstring
events:
- type: http-api-gateway
properties:
path: /{proxy+}
method: GET
containerPort: 3000
httpApiGatewayName: mainGateway
resources:
cpu: 2
memory: 2048
scaling:
minCount: 1
maxCount: 5
mainDatabase:
Type: relational-database
Properties:
credentials:
masterUserName: username
masterUserPassword: password
engine:
type: aurora-postgresql-serverless
2. Write application code
Write your application code as usual.
Example application code
import express from 'express';
const app = express();
const port = process.env.PORT;
app.get('/', (req, res) => {
res.send('Hello World!');
});
app.listen(port, () => {
console.log(`Server running on port ${port}`);
});
3. Deploy
Deployment is as easy as writing 1 CLI command or calling 1 SDK method. Stacktape handles the rest:
- Packages your source code
- Scans and resolved dependencies
- Configures and provisions infrastructure resources
- Deploys the application
Everything is done as efficiently as possible, cutting down your deployment times by up to 80%.
