Hey HN, we're excited to show you our beta of HyperDev, a developer playground for quickly building full-stack web apps. I'll try and respond to comments as I can.
congrats on the launch, it looks really easy to use
Which server side technologies are currently supported and/or planned?
Currently Node.js.

Python and others: Coming Soon™

Is this just free while in beta, or will it be free/have a free tier afterwards?
Part of the beta is to gather information on costs and usage so we can put up sensible pricing at some point. There will be always be a free tier but we're still figuring out the right caps/limits.
Custom domains?
Custom domains aren't directly supported in the beta yet, but you can use CloudFlare or CloudFront and Route53 to wrap your HyperDev app with a custom domain and it will work fine. We plan to make this easier for people in the future.
Does the word "yet" mean that this is a planned future feature?
It's on our roadmap, but I can't give you a date :)
Will there be options to have code stored in Kiln/GitHub/whatever?
(comment deleted)
We have plans to integrate with existing services and provide easy import export. We'll let you know when the features are released :)
Is this intended just for prototyping/dev or full hosting of production apps?
