Re:Show HN: Interval, CLIs in browser with no front end code by elsherbini on Tuesday June 07, 2022 @02:49PM (#31658540)
I work in an academic lab and develop pipelines for processing raw data to get people tables to analyze. Would this be a good solution for me to allow labmates who aren't very good with the command line to run those pipelines? We run the pipelines on HPC cluster, would I need to spin up a server that sits between the cluster and interval, or could I somehow run the backend directly on the cluster?

Yes, letting non-technical teammates run stuff that was previously only accessible on the command line is basically the perfect use case. In terms of the specifics of your setup: without having worked with an HPC cluster before, I'm not 100% on exactly what it would take, but I'm pretty confident it's possible. The SDK component is super lightweight, so if we can get Node.js running, we can get Interval running. Feel free to email me (alex at interval dot com) and I can help you with this.
