On the one hand, I see your point; hacking it together probably isn't hard.

On the other, they're a startup with limited resources, and time to market matters dearly for them. They probably don't even have product-market fit yet, and supporting Microsoft technologies that Microsoft has abandoned seems questionable.

Anyway, I upvoted your comment, because it could be that their target market is running in weird enterprise-y environments and your problem is common. Feedback is helpful and hard fought at small companies.

The downvotes actually motivate me to fix this, except the docs have zero information on how to set up a development environment. I can tweak the CLI and `go build` it, but the plugin install process ends up overwriting my changes somehow. I've wasted about two hours learning Go and digging into the project's CI/CD pipeline, trying to figure out how everything works, and I haven't even begin debugging the actual problem I'm having. Ultimately, this goes on the pile of neat things I saw on HN but don't actually work IRL. It's too bad because this looks super cool.


Sorry you didn't have a smooth start there :-(. Not sure how the behavior you are describing is happening. We'd be happy to help get things going if you want to open an issue [1] or discuss on Slack [2].
