Show HN: On-demand staging environments for web apps

Re:Show HN: On-demand staging environments for web apps by adamringhede on Monday May 04, 2020 @04:58PM (#23073171)

Is anybody interested in a way to automatically create docker based staging environments based on pull requests or specific branches? The idea is to help teams developing products to let others test early versions without having to configure staging environments themselves.

I'm working on a solution for this and would like to see if there is any interest.

There are a bunch of services that already do this in some permutation or another:

Tugboat: https://tugboat.qa/ Squash: https://www.squash.io/ Dockup: https://getdockup.com/ Release: https://www.releaseapp.io/ FeaturePeek: https://featurepeek.com/ Valist: https://www.valist.dev/

Some of them obfuscate the Docker aspect, or use different technologies (GCP, k8s), but this seems to be an area that is getting well-covered. And that doesn't consider similar functionality integrated in big platforms, like Netlify Deploy Previews, GitLab Review Apps, etc.
