Hey there, this looks interesting. What's the scope of this project? Is it meant to be closer to developers or do you see this being used in production?

How is progress of builds, observability, etc being tackled?

Dagger is meant for both development and production. Note that Dagger doesn't run your application itself: only the pipelines to build, test and deploy it. So, although the project is still young and pre-1.0, we expect it will be production-ready more quickly because of the nature of the workloads (running a pipeline is easier than running an app).

All Dagger SDKs target the same Dagger Engine. End-users and administrators can target the engine API directly, for logging, instrumentation, etc. The API is not yet publicly documented, but will be soon.

We're also building an optional cloud service, Dagger Cloud, that will provide a lot of these features as a "turnkey" software supply chain management platform.
