It seems like this is very scoped to GitHub and AWS (DDB)? Terraform differentiates itself by being platform agnostic, and Atlantis does a great job following that principle
So the statement:
Is Atlantis workflow possible without a backend?
Doesn't really come across. An honest opinion: I feel like it hasn't been really thought through and it shouldn't be compared to Atlantis. I do think it's nice that you've played around with the idea and I would love to see something platform agnostic which doesn't require a service to be up and running.
It would be great if you could abstract away this:
for real world scenario you'll need to configure remote backend (S3 + DynamoDB)

As someone who runs Atlantis in K8s I’ve definitely found myself wanting the plans/applies to run in a more dynamic environment (eg have the Atlantis server create a pod to run the TF task in rather than running it locally on the server pod.) I’m not that familiar with GH Actions but it looks like an interesting idea!

it could be possible to have atlantis fire Github Actions with
workflow_distpatch
and pass the necesary commands etc but obviously needs coding and at that point maybe you can use a slimdown version of atlantis as a github action that can do all the parsing and such

@Utpal Nadiger I’ve been keeping an eye on your product, Digger. And it seems like you’ve been working on abstracting away the S3 bucket and DDB table too. It’s starting to look very interesting - keep up the good work 👍🏼

Thanks @Bruno Schaatsbergen! Your feedback a couple of weeks back helped a ton in shaping the roadmap.
