Trigger.dev looks like amazing if you want a simplified temporal that is still 100% code based and exclusively in Typescript. If you are looking for a Zapier-for-developer experience, we took an alternative route at Windmill of allowing Python/Javascript/Go/Bash as steps but the workflows are still GUI based: https://github.com/windmill-labs/windmill/blob/main/imgs/win...

Despite them being GUI based, you can do everything that temporal enable, approval steps/suspending workflows until being reactivated by a webhook, branching, etc, etc... It's 100% open-source and self-hostable.

Interesting. Here's a previous discussion about Windmill:

Be still me heart!

A contributors guide? Documentation? A PUBLIC ROADMAP!

THIS is an example of open source done well.
