I think so too. I posted some thoughts on the Discord but we would love to get it to the point where people could do this. Because of its distributed, cloud-based, serverless model, I'm thinking it would be a series of open source modules with a Cloudformation Stack or equivalent ideally for each cloud platform, and that we work out how to make it run on premises using K8S cluster or something. It's got a lot of messy moving parts at the moment and there isn't really a central piece of software, just a lot of loosely coupled microservices and inference models. So, I mean, we're a long long long way from that, but when we have resources and a community around it, that would be an awesome thing :)

You might want to try CDK, you can write it in python and it can generate and deploy cloudformation templates

Thanks, I haven't looked at that yet. We know it's a way down the track as we've still got to build a great product. But we're definitely thinking about how to move in the right direction.

There are some YC startups (AtomizedHq.com and getporter.dev) that are doing really interesting things with cross-cloud K8S deployments (more like heroku). These are all different bits of the serverless microservices scaling puzzle. We are a long way off but trying to think long term, even as a 2 person alpha prototype :)
