  • WorkOS - The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS
  • InfluxDB - Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale
  • SaaSHub - Software Alternatives and Reviews
  • spec

    The AsyncAPI specification allows you to create machine-readable definitions of your asynchronous APIs. (by asyncapi)

  • Automatic Docs: Stay ahead with automatic AsyncAPI documentation

  • faststream

    FastStream is a powerful and easy-to-use Python framework for building asynchronous services interacting with event streams such as Apache Kafka, RabbitMQ, NATS and Redis.

  • FastStream simplifies the process of writing producers and consumers for message queues, handling all the parsing, networking and documentation generation automatically. It is a new package based on the ideas and experiences gained from FastKafka and Propan. By joining our forces, we picked up the best from both packages and created a unified way to write services capable of processing streamed data regardless of the underlying protocol. We'll continue to maintain both packages, but new development will be in this project.

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.

  • pydantic

    Data validation using Python type hints

  • Pydantic Validation: Leverage Pydantic's validation capabilities to serialize and validate incoming messages

  • Propan

    Propan is a powerful and easy-to-use Python framework for building event-driven applications that interact with any MQ Broker
