Most backends are built for developers.
But the rest of the team is building, too.
Directus v12 is out today. A major upgrade built around one idea: the whole team should be able to work on the same backend without getting in each other's way.
Here's what shipped:
An improved content editing experience. Native draft and publishing workflows built into the core.
AI-assisted translations. Scale across languages with schema scaffolding handled for you.
Granular access control for AI. Agents act on behalf of real users with the right permissions applied.
Oh...and we launched a new website (what up .com!), clarified our license with the new Open Innovation Grant, and completely revamped our documentation today too.

With the raise of AI and how it's changing the way we work
I wonder if people is still interested in consuming content to learn new things (videos, articles, conferences, courses) 🤔
As I have mentioned a few times already, we still need GREAT ENGINEERS. At @directus we are looking for Senior Rust engineers 🦀
Check out this opportunity to work with a phenomenal team 👇

I just finished my very first big project for @directus , soon to be released on next version 😍
I'm pretty happy with my team and the work we got through 🫶
Just distributed another 300 Codex for OSS coupons to open source maintainers.
Congrats to everyone building the tools, infra, frameworks, editors, agents, and weird little utilities the rest of us depend on.
Recent repos include:
Reactive Resume, Directus, Discourse, React, Flutter, Node, Deno, Rust, Ruby, Storybook, Tailwind CSS, RisingWave, Requestly, Qwen Code, Rust Analyzer, Zulip, Zed, yt-dlp, OpenCV, and a lot more.
🧑💻 Todays talk comes from Marc Backes @marcba senior software engineer from @directus who explores how Vue can power more than user interfaces—by running its reactivity system on the backend.

Your non-technical team shouldn't need a developer to ship a build
The new Directus deployment module lets your team trigger @Vercel or @Netlify deployments directly from the Data Studio.
No webhook URLs, no Slack pings to engineering, no context switching.
* Connect your Vercel or Netlify account
* Select which projects or sites to manage
* Trigger production or preview deploys from one button
* Monitor status and logs right inside Directus
Role-based access means you control who can deploy. Give that permission to your content team, your marketing lead, whoever needs it -- without giving them full admin access.
Setup takes about 2 minutes.
Tired of rebuilding the same backend? We spin up a full backend from scratch in minutes with Directus. APIs, permissions, automations, no boilerplate. If you use SQL, this will save you hours.
@devjeanayala@thekeystatic@directus Directus es de los viejos confiables... robusto y completo, nunca lo usé en ningún proyecto mío pero lo conozco del radar.
Ahora veo que lanzaron MCP para el trabajo con agentes, así que puede ser una gran opción para explorar: https://t.co/LS7xork9DL
