In plain words
Acquia provides a developer portal offering guides, quickstarts, and examples for building on their platform. It enables developers to create and scale structured content with fine-grained access controls and collaborative tools across multiple frontends using an open API. Built on open-source Drupal, it includes content types, fields, permissions management, and editorial workflows that work locally or through Acquia's hosted infrastructure, allowing developers to write custom components while editors compose pages.

From the sources
Build and scale structured content, with fine-grained access controls and collaborative editorial tools, on as many frontends as you want, with reads and writes over an open API. Drupal gives you all of that out of the box: content types and fields, roles and permissions, editorial workflow, revisions. You write the components and editors compose pages with them. Acquia runs what’s underneath. Drupal and Drupal Canvas are open source: you can run the same pieces on your laptop today. Rendered by your frontend: the same Canvas components, served from your own app. One scaffold command per adapter. Either way, editors compose pages in Drupal Canvas, a modern visual editor, from the components…from dev.acquia.com

GitRanks2025 · gitranks.com · ▲127Hi HN, I built GitRanks because I’ve always wanted a clear, fun way to see how my open-source work compares - both globally and right here at home. The app pulls in GitHub data to give every developer an at-a-glance “scorecard”, then rolls those into live leaderboards so you can: - Track rankings by stars, contributions and followers - Filter worldwide vs. your own country - Refresh daily - no waiting weeks to see your progress - Discover rising devs you’ve never heard of and follow their work Tech Stack: - Back: MongoDB | NestJS | BullMQ | GraphQL - Front: Next.js | Tailwind | Shadcn Data:…
Algora – Paid open-source contributions2023 · console.algora.io · ▲111Hey HN! We’re Ioannis & Zaf, building Algora.io to help open source projects reward their contributors & grow their communities. 1 min demo: https://twitter.com/algoraio/status/1641560954746839042 The problem: paid contributions in open source are scarce, low trust & high friction Our solution: we built an app that streamlines open source bounties on Github Our 1st customer was Remotion.dev (15.6k stars, Typescript/React) in November 2022, whose feedback helped us ship our Github app & iterate through our bounty workflow. To date, Remotion.dev has rewarded 17…
- OOObjectiv – Open-source product analytics infrastructure2022 · objectiv.io · ▲88
Hi! One of the creators here. Very proud to finally be able to show you what we've been working on for over a year now. Curious to hear your thoughts! Objectiv is open-source (APLv2) product analytics infrastructure. It's built around a generic but strict event taxonomy, open/common data- and infra tools (currently PG, snowplow, working on bigquery with more to come), and the analyses are done using our pandas-like, SQL speaking modeling library called Bach. As a result, we’re moving towards a vision wherein models can be shared openly, independent of product, platform[1] or data…

Hi HN! This is a little site I put together while learning the Elm language as part of a hackathon at my work, I thought you might enjoy it. Be sure to click the `(source)` buttons next to the graphs: you can edit them interactively & write your own queries against the entire data set. The syntax isn't well documented yet, but you can probably get the general idea pretty quickly based on the examples there. If you like it, have questions, etc. let me know! If folks think this is cool, maybe I can get it turned into a legit project. :)
