Hi, We were evaluating openblocks seriously for our project when we started getting messages that online version will be brought down. Will you guys be continuing with this project? I feel you have a wonderful piece of framework.

Hello SID,

unfortunately the initial Developer Team got silent some weeks ago and seemed to have left the project. However, Openblocks is such a great project, that out of the Community we do not want it to die.

Therefore we start all over / further and have now https://lowcoder.cloud as new home for the community version for free, as also a new repository: https://github.com/Lowcoder-Community/openblocks and a new Discord Server: https://discord.gg/usCgMKFN

We believe in the power of the community and hope to ensure a good future for Openblocks.

I agree @FalkWolsky. As part of my organization I am evaluating OpenBlocks and would like to contribute back as well. Best feature is ready integration as ReactJS without iframe - as not other module provides.

Great! The Discord invite has expired @FalkWolsky

Windmill (https://github.com/windmill-labs/windmill) is another open-source alternative to Retool with as a consequence a lot of overlap with Openblocks. We have a lot of respect for openblock's team work. However, If openblocks were to shutdown, we would be happy to provide migration guides. We are more active than ever and with financial stability.

Windmill looks impressive - thanks!
