Awesome to see this product getting more love! I'm looking forward to the Github status updates.

A few suggestions from my experience using the product for the last few months:

- Setting the machine type on a per-step basis instead of for the entire job. For example, I'd like to use a large box to compile my scala, but can use a smaller one to test each package.

- Showing the status of each step before everything ends.

- Showing the elapsed time for a job on the page for the job in addition to the start time.

- Failing a single step without stopping the build (for example, a single project in a ci build fails.)

- Speeding up the web view (it's very frustratingly laggy when you have a significant logs in your build.)

- Using the dataflow visualization for cloud builder.

- JUnit support
