Show HN: Config.ly – Never hardcode your data again

It’s really not so hard to roll yourself IF you don’t need a web interface.

In my GraphQL api I have a resolver called appConfig. That enables me to fetch the config I need for a screen in the same request as the data and to reuse any caching/offline/http logic the app already has. Zero added latency. No service can beat that, but then it‘s also just me editing postgres to change the config.

I think even if you do need a web interface, there are enough plug and play tools that will give you something that works reasonably well. That isn't to say that a service like Config.ly couldn't do a much better job.

I’m just saying that if a non-developer needs to config something, they for sure would like to have a web interface.
