Scaffold
Your AWS infrastructure defined as code, in seconds.
As a Freelancer, I was faced with the difficulties for my clients to create a working cloud architecture on AWS, GCP or Azure. Revolv aims to fix that.
After releasing the first open-source version of Scaffold, 22 days ago, we already have 24 stars on GitHub.
Scaffold is a framework to create a complete AWS infrastructure, defined as code, in seconds.
We also have added a new infrastructure to our catalog.
It's a docker-based infrastructure, serverless, with CI/CD, auto-scaling, zero downtime deployment, SSL, load-balancing and high availability.
You could create it in less than one minute in your own AWS account.
After releasing the first open-source version of Scaffold, 5 days ago, we already have 10 stars on GitHub.

It may seems ridiculous to others but it's more than all the open-source projects that I have released by the past. 😂
You work for months on your project, submit it to HN/REDDIT/X, and voilà, you're featured on the front page.
Everything seems to work as planned... until the dream turns into a nightmare:
People tell you that your landing page sucks and doesn't convey what you do.
People are reaching out to you on Twitter to tell you that the pricing is ridiculous and that no one will ever pay this outrageous price.
People yell at you because they need to register to check it out.
You've lost months (years?) of your life working on your project. Seeing people destroying it is hard. Very hard.
I needed to take some days off.
Once I've swallowed the pill, I needed to acknowledge that receiving harsh feedback is hard. For everyone. But harsh doesn't mean false.
Following the recurring feedback that I've received, I decided to change everything.
Today, Revolv has become Scaffold an open-source company.
We've changed everything from pricing to visual identity, and we're now featured on Reddit with more than 60 upvotes (our previous attempt with Revolv has made 0).

Startups are hard. Never give up.
After weeks spent writing blog posts and talking to users on Twitter, HN and Reddit, I've been more than happy to see a first architecture created on Revolv.
Sadly for us, this architecture was created by one of our competitor that was there to test our application.
The architecture has been deleted some minutes later.
Hi there,
After having released Revolv weeks ago, I'm working on a series of articles that will explain how to deploy the most famous web frameworks on the most famous cloud providers.
The first one is about deploying a Symfony 4 / 5 application on a production-ready architecture on AWS.
Hi there,
After months of hard work, the first release of Revolv is finally here! 🎉
Revolv aims to solve a critical problem for all new projects: creating a complete cloud architecture on AWS, GCP or Azure, in seconds.
For this release, we’ve created a docker-based architecture, with CI/CD, auto-scaling, zero downtime deployment, SSL, load-balancing, high availability and a data store (MongoDB, PgSQL or MySQL).
You will be able to create this architecture on your own AWS account, in less than one minute.
Try it out and tell us what you think!
Best,
Jeremy
Just started the promotion of my landing page on Ship.
I'm testing different versions, starting with:
"Hi, I'm Jérémy 👋
I'm building Revolv to automate cloud architecture creation.
Revolv aims to solve a critical problem for all new projects: Creating a complete cloud architecture on AWS, GCP or Azure, in seconds."
Just finished to write all integration and unit tests for the first version of Revolv.
Test Suites: 47 passed, 47 total
Tests: 418 passed, 418 total
Snapshots: 0 total
Time: 206.404s
Ran all test suites.
I think having tests for an MVP depend on the type of project and your users "bug tolerance".
Writing all these tests have certainly delayed launch by days but I don't want to take the risk that my users encounter bugs during architecture creation (or deployment).
Just finished the creation of the first architecture!
It's a docker-based architecture with CI/CD, auto-scaling, SSL (with auto-renewal), load-balancing and zero downtime deployment.
You will also be able to add a data store (MySQL, PGSQL or MongoDB).
It will only be available on AWS at this time (using Fargate, RDS, DocumentDB, CodeBuild and CodePipeline).
You will be able to create this architecture on your own account, in seconds!
Stay tuned!
Today, I was faced with another client that struggle to create a working cloud architecture on AWS.
I've decided to create a website that will fix that, Revolv.
