What's your experience with Vapor? We played around with it and thought about switching from Forge, but it was too complicated for our codebase. I love the idea though.

How expensive our your cloud costs? CI/CD pretty good?



Overall quite good. We use their Docker container support (to get ffmpeg, mostly) and it's been pretty smooth running throughout. I'd previously used a lot of Heroku so the habits developed there paid off in our codebase for Vapor; only a few tweaks were really needed.

Cost-wise we're pretty bursty, so it's saved us quite a bit. Lambda runtime is money, so a little bit of performance optimization can go a long way. CI we run through Github Actions; an environment secret plus `vapor deploy` and it's on its way up after a successful run.

Wasn't a fan of Forge; for that style of things I'd use Ploi nowadays.
