Dagger lets you write CI/CD pipelines in your programming language — TypeScript, Python, Go. Runs locally and in any CI. No more YAML.
Reviewer scorecard
“Free tier with no restrictions is remarkable. Completion quality rivals Copilot for most languages.”
“CI pipelines in TypeScript instead of YAML. Local execution means you can debug pipelines on your machine.”
“Hard to argue with free. The enterprise features and Windsurf IDE show they have a real business model beyond the free tier.”
“The YAML-to-code migration for CI is overdue. Dagger's approach of real programming languages is correct.”
“Giving away code completion to win IDE market share with Windsurf is a smart long-term play.”
“CI/CD in real programming languages will replace YAML. Dagger is leading this inevitable transition.”
