I wonder what these orgs do when they're buying licenses for Teamviewer or something?! This is fully closed source then and you never know what these clients really do!
It's getting a bit ridiculous at the moment, because we have so many teams working on different projects and when you're jumping in and trying support a different team we mostly have to ask around for the latest dotenv files to get the projects working locally, after cloning.
I know there are solutions like hashicorp vault and doppler out there, but they are not cheap and I don't want another service handling my secrets, because they are stored in gcp secrets anyway and mostly managed via terraform / terragrunt / terramate.
I implemented a really hacky way of "automatically" creating a .env file when you first checkout the project and have access to the secrets, but it was really messy and did just work on macos and linux (and additionally required you to have gcloud and direnv installed).
So I basically wanted something like doppler, but for free and it should just work with gcp, azure and aws, so that people who are using the secret managers by these cloud providers don't have to change anything (regarding how they store their secrets).
I couldn't find anything, so I build the first version of it: https://github.com/mistweaverco/kuba
Disclaimer: Currently, it only supports GCP so far, because that was my main goal for my day-job. I'm going to add AWS and Azure support tomorrow.
Zana is swahili for "tools" or "tooling".
A minimal package manager for Neovim (and other editors) which uses the Zana Registry to install and manage packages.
Why?
You should own your data (.http files in your vcs). You shouldn't have to worry about logins or accounts. It should be mostly compatible with Kulala.nvim, Rest.nvim, VsCode RestClient, IntelliJ and Visual Studio.

But to be honest, that is not something I want to tackle alone. I need (code-)contributors for that. Basically someone who is well versed in MacOS native development and someone who is willing to take on native Windows stuff. I can take on the Linux part, but that's the minimum I would expect for it to work.
Next thing is getting signing certificates for MacOS and Windows.
MacOS costs USD99/y and Windows USD 350+/y or with the beta program USD 120/y
Which I'm willing to take on, if Bananas hits a nerve and people start really using it.
