Love the product from day 1 (since 0.10 I think !) It helped us build https://thumbup.tech focusing most of our effort on the front and (almost) letting appwrite do the heavy work backend side. We loved especially how functions work. It's basically where you can put all your backend logic in. So far we haven't been limited in using functions. Kudos to the Appwrite community on github which is super responsive, kind & helpful ! Kudos to @eldad_fux for starting this project !

@elsuperseby Thumbup looks amazing! Thanks for building with us :)

@eldad_fux @elsuperseby Thats some amazing feedback! Functions have been a major enabler for developers to run any kind of custom code! 🤩
Matej Bačo
@eldad_fux @elsuperseby I am flabbergasted to see your project! 🤯 Amazing work!!! 🎉

@eldad_fux @elsuperseby Wow your product looks amazing. And so proud that Appwrite helped build it. Thank you for using Appwrite and helping Appwrite become better.

@eldad_fux @meldiron Flabbergasted nothing less? :) Thank you! We just developped what think was missing in tech recruitment : a simple way to receive & apply to job then talk directly to a recruiter without hassles. Upvotes always welcome ! https://www.producthunt.com/prod... And again, would not have been about to launch the product without Appwrite !

Hi there, it’s Eldad from the Appwrite team 👋 App development is complex and repetitive. Creating modern applications requires a ton of different skills and has a huge learning curve. I started working on Appwrite in 2019 to abstract the complexity of software development so I can focus on creating value, and more importantly, have fun writing code. As someone who started their software engineering journey in the open-source community, I always wanted to find a way to contribute back to the community. This encouraged me to publish Appwrite on GitHub later that year. To my amazement, the project immediately started trending on GitHub, and a community formed around it. Three years later, thanks to the help of a growing community of +200k members, we’re officially announcing Appwrite. I couldn’t have done it alone. Appwrite is a secure backend server that provides the core APIs required to build modern applications. Appwrite provides authentication, database, storage, functions, and advanced real-time capabilities. Appwrite is built to meet developers where they are. Appwrite supports 24 runtimes and 11 different programming languages with 12 different SDKs. Developers and teams can stick with the tech stack they are already comfortable with. Appwrite also has support for a variety of adapters for authentication, storage, databases, messaging, and logging. Appwrite is designed to be easy to start and quick to grow. Developer experience is at the heart of what we do. From the way, we designed our docs, through our SDKs and integrations, the consistency of our APIs, and the intense discussions we hold with our community about naming conventions. The developer’s journey is always at the top of our minds. You can self-host Appwrite with a single command anywhere and have full control over your data and your user’s privacy. This is just the beginning for Appwrite. We believe Appwrite has tremendous potential to make developers' lives easier in even more ways. Here’s a sneak peek at some features we’re currently working towards: MongoDB and PostgreSQL adaptors, GraphQL support, more flexible queries and relations, geolocation data and querying, push notifications, and offline sync. We’re excited to hear about your feedback and see you in the Appwrite community! You can learn more about what Appwrite can do for you here: https://appwrite.io/ https://github.com/appwrite/appw...

Appwrite is the collective creation of every community member. It doesn’t matter if you’ve submitted a pull request, shared your frustration or love, or recommended Appwrite to your peers, you all helped us reach this major milestone. We are all making Appwrite better - together. Unfortunately, we could not add everyone as Makers on Product Hunt, so we created this special page as a gesture of our appreciation: https://appwrite.io/thankyou.txt You are also welcome to claim your special Appwrite Maker card: ​​https://makers.appwrite.io/

@eldad_fux Congrats on the launch 🚀
Eldad Fux
@fares_aktouf Thank you so much!
Agent joons
@fares_aktouf @eldad_fux am grateful for this milestone achieved but am eagerly anticipating the cloud release. When do you think this will happen???
Christy Jacob
@fares_aktouf @eldad_fux @agent_joons Hey there 👋 We're working on the Appwrite Cloud as we speak. Very soon we'd be opening up the Cloud for a select group of users that have expressed interest. If you'd like to be included in the list, please drop in your details here https://appwrite.io/cloud
Krishna Agarwal
Why I am not listed as a Maker, I filled the form?
Eldad Fux
@mrkrishnaagarwal Unfortunately, we could not add everyone as Makers on Product Hunt, so we created this special page as a gesture of our appreciation: https://appwrite.io/thankyou.txt you can find your name on the list! You are also welcome to claim your special Appwrite Maker card: ​​https://makers.appwrite.io/
Christy Jacob
@mrkrishnaagarwal Hey Krishna thank you so much for being an active supporter of the Appwrite project. We are super grateful. We received over 800 submissions for makers and ran into some ProductHunt limitations when trying to add all of them. However, we've created a page on Appwrite that will forever list the makes of Appwrite! You can check it out here https://appwrite.io/thankyou.txt
Krishna Agarwal
Thanks a lot, I can understand
Krishna Agarwal
Thanks Good to see my Maker card.
Eldad Fux
@mrkrishnaagarwal glad you like it :) I already added mine to my GitHub readme 😎

Appwrite brings an improved concept of BaaS. For me, the custom functions are amazing ✌🏻
Christy Jacob
@matus_fercak Thank you so much! Functions are my favourite feature too!! What's your favourite function runtime and how do you like the experience with the Appwrite CLI ?
Haimantika Mitra
@matus_fercak Thank you! Functions are my personal favorite too!
Matúš Ferčák
@christy_jacob1 My favourite function runtime is Deno, working with Appwrite CLI is straightforward 👌🏻
Christy Jacob
@matus_fercak That sounds wonderful!! We're bringing some awesome improvements to functions very soon and we hope you'll love them. We're just getting started 🤩
Eldad Fux
@matus_fercak We'd love to see your work when its ready to be shared with the world 🤩
Terry Lennon
Been a huge supporter of Appwrite for over a year, championing it even at the companies I was working at. Their community is second-to-none (the envy of other BaaS services on the market), speed of feature release is exceptional, and the support in their Discord is incredible. This will be one of the key pillars of the future dev world - @eldad_fux and team are going to go far!
Bradley Schofield
@terry_lennon Thank you for your amazing words! We won't let you down! 💪
Eldad Fux
@terry_lennon Thank you so much!! So many kind words! This is definitely going to help us push even stronger. 🙏
Terry Lennon
@bradley_schofield I'm confident you, the team and the community won't at all. So much so, I've doubled down and committed my next two prod apps to be 100% appwrite, after careful experimentation with Supabase, Firebase and Amplify. Full faith in you guys!
Terry Lennon
@eldad_fux Absolutely smashing it mate, thanks for bringing this gem into the world! Best of luck today, and here's to many more years of Appwrite success!
Eldad Fux
@bradley_schofield @terry_lennon it means a lot! We're always here if you need any help!
Jandy
So far the most interesting OS BaaS I saw out there.
Christy Jacob

I just migrated a project from Firebase to Appwrite: Authentication, Users, Databases and Storage. And I can't be more in love with it. Just awesome how it is build and also presented to the user. Great UI too. So simple and with lots of features. Stop reading this, just go and try!!
Haimantika Mitra
@alexparton Thanks Alejandro! Looks like you used our latest migration feature!
Christy Jacob
@alexparton Your comment is heartwarming! Thanks for the awesome testimonial. 🤩
Alejandro Morales
@haimantika_mitra you are very welcome. and... nope, I did not use it this time :') but I will for sure use it to migrate every other project I have!
Haimantika Mitra
@alexparton Oh please do, and let us know what you think about it!
Vincent Ge
@alexparton Koodos goes to @sara_k1 @chen_parnasa and @carlaa for their awesome design work on our UI :P
