We are working on a config language / DSL for building web apps that integrates with React & Node.js. A number of times we've been asked “Why are you bothering creating a new language for web app development? Isn’t Github Copilot* soon going to be generating all the code for developers anyhow?”.
This is on our take on the situation and what we think things might look like in the future.

TL;DR: Wasp allows you to build and deploy a full-stack JS web app with a single config file. Gitpod spins up fresh, automated developer environments in the cloud, in seconds. A perfect tandem to win a hackathon and enjoy free pizza even before other teams even started to set up their coding env and realized they need to update their node version.

We've built a Trello clone using Wasp! Read on to learn how it went and how you can contribute.
Wasp was part of Y Combinator’s W21 batch, which took place from January of 2021 until the end of March.
We want to share what we learned during the process!
After graduating from Y Combinator's Winter 2021 Batch, we are super excited to announce that Wasp raised $1.5m in our first funding round! The round is led by Lunar Ventures and joined by HV Capital. Also see it in TechCrunch.
The best thing about it is that the majority of our investors are either experienced engineers themselves (e.g. ex-Facebook, Twitter and Airbnb) or have a strong focus on investing in deep technology and developer companies. They share the vision we have with Wasp, understand and care about the problem we are solving.
