[!IMPORTANT] Fief, as you know it today, is wrapping up its current chapter. We're working on a completely new and exciting vision for the future!
This means we won't be adding new features or fixing bugs in this codebase anymore. Thank you so much for being part of the journey so far — your support has meant the world to us.
Stay tuned — we can't wait to show you what's next! 🚀
All contributions to improve the project are welcome! In particular, bug and documentation fixes are really appreciated.
For new features and larger improvements, we kindly ask you to open a discussion first about your idea, what motivates it and how you plan to implement it before you start working. It'll avoid frustration on both sides if we decide not to integrate your code in the project.
Thanks goes to these wonderful people (emoji key):
To get started quickly, we recommend you to use GitHub Codespaces. We have a complete configuration allowing you to start working on Fief right away, including pre-configured PostgreSQL and Redis servers.
When the Codespace is built, an admin user is automatically created.
