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.

@oopsohno @_phzn It’s a good question, I’m not sure but I wouldn’t be surprised if it was via Fiver etc with an interior design 3d model artist. Sorry not much help!

Hackathons are the reason I went from Anthropology ➡️ DevRel so working on this hackathon has been really special 🌻

So much creativity on display, we love to see it 😎

[Ably Realtime @ablyrealtime]

A huge thank you to all the participants who got building with our APIs, and to our guest judge Patrik Modig from Mentimeter!

Such a nice DM to receive about @ablyrealtime's newest product - Spaces! 🚀

[Bethany Loft @bb_loft]

Incredibly proud of the team who've worked on this in one way or another! Great things are coming, watch this space 😎

[Ably Realtime @ablyrealtime]

Our new Spaces SDK lets you create a virtual collaborative environment without building the infrastructure to power it.

That gives your users access to a range of collaborative features that make remote working quicker, easier, and smoother. Here are the main features: 🧵👇
