Still maintained? #371

Open hialvaro opened 1 year ago

hialvaro commented 1 year ago

Is open blocks still being maintained and developed? I see that the activity in the repo has stopped since last month...

MichalisDBA commented 1 year ago

The original developers abandoned the project. Please come to discord community, other members are trying to move the project and continue development elsewhere.

You should also take a look at Appsmith: https://github.com/appsmithorg/appsmith

It is a similar tool that is also opensource, well funded, mature, and has a growing team behind it. Openblocks actually uses some Appsmith code! Feel free to join the community, contribute, and try it out. You can get a free cloud account also, if you don't want to self-host.

@hialvaro maybe we can separate and write pure opensource? without any crap :)

there's budibase too, AppSmith OAuth and Access Controls are available in their premium tier, which is completely fair to be honest

Still I like the idea of openblocks because it has the minimum functionality for an useful internal app from the get-go ,

Would love to hear from the original openblocks devs though, I feel they've done a great job here and would be great to see what they have in mind, but maintaining an opensource project is hard work and I understand they probably have a lot in their plates right now.
