  • SurveyJS - Open-Source JSON Form Builder to Create Dynamic Forms Right in Your App
  • InfluxDB - Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale
  • WorkOS - The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS
  • Umami

    Umami is a simple, fast, privacy-focused alternative to Google Analytics.

    Plausible isn't a big deal, because we just use Umami instead. We found ourselves outgrowing our current documentation setup (static html via git + hugo) so we went looking for Wikis and we settled on wikijs. Admittedly, we are at fault for not noticing mysql being deprecated in the near future and we accept that. So now we've two options; we already rent a dedicated server purely for our databases (we chose mariadb - everything used it and it has performance gains over mysql so it was a no brainer) so we thought, okay - we really like wikijs - it's exactly what we need and our users love it, our content is already growing super fast and it's been like two days.
