courtlistener VS Taiga

- https://github.com/freelawproject/bigcases2/

Languages: Python, Django, JavaScript, Browser extensions

Free Law Project is a small non-profit that uses technology to make the legal sector better. We operate at a big scale (about 300M items in our DB and a lot of traffic), and need help scaling, operating, expanding, fixing, modernizing, and maintaining our stack.

One high priority project is adding a CDN to our site due to the crush we just got on the latest Epstein docs:

Background: https://www.axios.com/2024/01/04/epstein-document-crash-docu...

Issue: https://github.com/freelawproject/courtlistener/issues/917

If you have experience in rolling out a CDN, that's great.

If not, we also have a volunteer backlog where we are always looking for help with our website, browser extensions, etc: https://github.com/orgs/freelawproject/projects/31/views/1

At this point, if you are a Python/Django/Browser extension dev, we could probably use your help!

If anybody has made it this far, all of the code for this is open source, and we'd certainly welcome your thoughts and ideas. I'm guessing lots of other people have crossed this bridge (DRF and HTMX are both quite popular), but I didn't see any other good guides, so hopefully this can be a beginning.

I'll also check out plane.so and taiga.io. I have not checked those out.

My team at work uses taiga

taiga.io — Project management platform for startups and agile developers, free for Open Source

The folks being Penpot also make a kanban management tool, kind of like Trello, called Taiga: http://taiga.io/ And it's also OSS.

I'm rooting for both of these, and now that they have some funding I hope they'll dedicate effort on polishing the rough edges (and do something about gratuitous amount of white space that permeates all of their web presence, and maybe reconsider their color pallete). They're very close, so I think and hope we'll some wonderful results very soon.

Taiga - Storage limitation

taiga.io has been good in my experience

^ This installs docker first (not sure if needed, but I'm trying to figure out how to set up taiga.io on my k3s cluster and they seem to want docker?

Do you have to use Windows? :s Sure it'll work but it's not because you can that you should... Anyway, I looked a bit at their docker-compose, it is a very complicated app, so Docker is definitely the way to go but maybe you should get the hang of it with the base nginx image, then build your own image just serving simple stuff, because it might seem a bit overwhelming to start with something as advanced as taiga.io. Of course, looking at the myriad of docker tutorials out there might help tremendously, too.
