openstatus

Building in open-source means you sometimes get lucky enough to cross paths with incredible contributors. For openstatus, it was Max Lim. 🔥 Huge shout-out to him, who rolled up his sleeves and revamped the OpenStatus self-hosting setup. Thanks to his contributions, getting everything running is smoother than ever. Even better? He agreed to share a behind-the-scenes look at his experience on our blog. Check it out below! 👇

The best part of building openstatus? Giving back and sponsoring fellow open-source developers on GitHub.

Who talks about your product better than its actual users? (Spoiler: nobody). 🔥 Massive thanks to Traefik Labs for moving to openstatus, contributing to the repo. Maximilian Kaske and I are taking the rest of the day off from marketing! 🥰 OSS FTW! 🚀 🔗 Link in comment 🔗

Seeing this kind of feedback drop in the chat gives us life. It ain't much, but it's honest work. 🧑🌾 Rome wasn't built in a day, but at least our self-hosting docs are finally functional. Let's go! 🏗️🔥

Woke up to an amazing message this morning. ☕️ Nayab Sarfaraj reached out to tell me he built a custom Post-Mortem Generator on top of openstatus. I asked if he’d be open to making it open-source, and he immediately agreed. I’m incredibly pumped to welcome Nayab as the very first contributor to our new openstatus-community organization on GitHub! 🚀 Seeing the open-source momentum grow around what we're building is the best feeling. If you are building something on top of openstatus, I’d love to see it and share it with the rest of the community. Drop it below or send me a DM! 👇 Link to Nayab’s Post-Mortem Generator repo in the comments!
