    I understand the need to make money, but hardly any open source software is free anymore even if you host it yourself. And this one doesn’t list the price which feels kinda cagey (get a license links to book a sales call).

    It’s nice that it’s open source, thank you. I just wish that Mattermost et al didn’t open Pandora’s box with this one.

      you can run the community edition for free. there's enough in there to run a full manufacturing business.

    Should we just name this layout/theme "claude" from now on?

      founder here. extremely accurate comment. we had a customer send us this website recently. they said "we think you need a better website, we made this with claude"

          they're awesome. we highly value their opinion. they were the ones who gave me the confidence to open source it

          https://minimal.tech -- they build the whole stack from PCB to hardware to wiring to mechanical assembly to telematics software themselves
