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
“Completion quality lags behind Copilot and Codeium. The privacy angle is the only differentiator.”
“CI pipelines in TypeScript instead of YAML. Local execution means you can debug pipelines on your machine.”
“In a market with free alternatives (Codeium) and better ones (Copilot), Tabnine's position is uncomfortable.”
“The YAML-to-code migration for CI is overdue. Dagger's approach of real programming languages is correct.”
“The privacy-first approach is admirable but the model quality gap is widening. Hard to see how they compete long-term.”
“CI/CD in real programming languages will replace YAML. Dagger is leading this inevitable transition.”
