    I also don't understand what your product actually does. What would help me: an example + diagram of a solution before and after the use of Ductape. How does this change things? The more detailed, the better (less marketing language, more example code / diagrams).

    The concept of what you describe is interesting and useful. I struggle to make the same conclusion from the website, it feels like it is written as too abstract to allow the reader to grasp exactly what you will get. Was the text improved by an LLM?

    It would be great to have a simple example or a scenario or a hello world for someone to say “Aha! I get what it is and how it can help me”

    Your explanation in this post makes a lot more to me than your site.

    To the folks who are confused what this does, a very similar product with clearer positioning is https://nango.dev (also a cool product and team I'd recommend)

      Nango also seems to be source available, that sold it for me

      Its under the elastic license...

      can you please tell me if this license bad or good in terms of open sourced-ness and where does it really fall on the spectrum.

    So this is like a bunch of patterns + implementation library of those patterns + PaaS runtime for that library? It is very hard to read this, but it seems it is similar to the library we use internally in our company to do this. Ours is very opinionated (this looks like this also) so we never thought of making it a product as it wouldn't fit in other companies, or so we figured.

    Maybe I didn't see it and it is there (there is a Lot of text), but I think having the npm and Frontpage should link to a directory of actual, full examples would be good.

    I read a bunch of docs and still didn't understand what this does...

    All these integration/workflow products (Nango, Ductape, n8n, Camunda, etc) reminds me of SnapLogic, which have been there for years and years.

    Just my 2 cents.

    Still trying to understand what this does… I think you need a demo vid front and center.

    Is there support for a backend that isn’t defined by a Postman or Swagger API? That’s the hard part…
