I got Astra to build an interactive website that provides developers with an atlas of our source code, giving it the Helm charts that describe our cloud services and telling it to work backwards to the source code that runs everything. The product is insanely amazing, and it got it right in one shot. The next shot: create a daily refresh where any updates to the code repositories are picked up and used to update the atlas.

Our developers and their agents will never long for a road map the next time they need to build something that touches code across multiple repositories. This is the kind of documentation product that nobody ever had time to build in the olden days. And now, we can get it on a Saturday in about 20 minutes.

What's coming in six months?



Highly interested in what you built, care to share? Thanks!


It is likely too specific to our particular orchestration approach to be useful as open source. But the recipe is replicable.

You can just paraphrase this prompt:

“Starting with our Helm charts, which you will find in /folder-of-charts, build an interactive website that semantically relates all of the components of our cloud services.”
