About Starlab

Starlab makes small developer tools and guides for one job: shipping a small app on a single server and getting it back when something goes wrong.

How we work

• We run it before we say it. Scripts and chapters are executed in clean containers, with the failure cases tested as carefully as the happy path.
• We measure. Where a claim can be a number (failed requests during a deploy, seconds to recover, events per second), it is a number, with the setup that produced it.
• We keep it small. A script you can read in an evening beats a framework you have to learn. Every product here is built that way.
