Yes, exactly. Probably two different focuses between us, we are more focused on providing the full environment to build productively with coding agents, from local dev all the way to prod. The key thing for us is that the agent can write code, build infrastructure and test the entire system autonomously locally, and then deploying to production should be dead simple.

A bit of a different approach from the classic use case of docker-compose that is often orthogonal to the production infrastructure in some sense.

One thing I've used to great success though is taking an existing project or example docker-compose and simply asking the coding agent to translate it to Specific's IaC. Works a treat, especially as the coding agent can read all the code at the same time and connect it all together.

(also it looks like we were in the same batch!)

I could definitely see that being useful for folks who are Docker-fearful or just less infra literate in general.

I think we're focused on the other end of the spectrum. Folks who like docker and have a good docker setup but want to have parallel runtimes. Anyway, best of luck!
