hey! some former banzaicloud folks around, really keen on what you are doing here, keep up the fantastic work!

some of us have started a new company (axoflow.com), joining forces with former balabit engineers (authors of syslog-ng) and using garden for development almost from day 0

Hey @icy-furniture-17516, that's so great to hear, welcome to the Community! I'm Shanky and I'm here to help the Community, from creating examples/documentation to debugging the worst issues on earth! 👋 so happy to be here! ❤️

I've known @icy-furniture-17516 since my days at Famly. He's a model example of a kind and generous human. So good to see you here! I'm Tao originally DevRel here at garden.io now Community Engineer. My day to day is writing content for https://garden.io/blog and thinking of ways to grow and nurture this blessed community. I post on the internet as worldofgeese.

Hi, my name is Anna and I am a SRE at garden.io. I've started my career in tech working in a datacenter hoisting actual physical servers around and then moved to Kubernetes and all sorts of clouds. I am always curious about how folks implement their different environments from dev to production and how the infrastructure necessary for that is deployed and managed. Happy to help and looking forward to lots of interesting discussions

Heyo, Albert here. I'm part of the engineering team working on Garden core. You might see me as Orzelius on github. <3

Hello everyone! My name is Jón, and I'm the CEO and one of the founders at Garden. I'm very much a computer geek masquerading as an "executive", and I love to talk about the product and work on it myself when I can (@edvald on GitHub).

Hi everyone! My name is Emanuele (10ko on GitHub), I've been at Garden for quite some time now 🙂 and I love what this community has grown into. I am so excited for everything the future will bring! Nowadays I mostly work on our Cloud offering, but I always try to keep an eye on the discussions happening here. Looking forward to learn from all of you.

Howdy y'all! 🤠 Magnus here, (

@trymbill

on Github). UI Engineer/Designer that has had the privilege of calling Garden my home-away-from-home for 4 months now. Currently focusing on a bit of a secret project which I hope to be able to give a sneak-peak preview of soon, but also helping with design where I can and Garden Cloud when I can.

Hey folks. I'm Jack. My small team (4 engineers) at Scale Computing have been using open source garden core for about a year now and it's truly a beloved part of our toolchain. I've had the opportunity to virtually meet a couple of folks at Garden at this point and our lead, Mac, had dinner in Seattle with some of team last year. Very grateful for the product and for the opportunity to make whatever small contributions in the form of feedback that we can.

Howdy from Austin, Texas, partner!

So happy to have you with us, Jack!

Hi all! My name is Eythor (Eyþór for those with an Icelandic keyboard, eysi09 on GitHub), and I'm the CTO and one of the founders of Garden. I'm basically a product engineer by heart and trade and have worked up and down the stack. When not doing biz dev stuff I like getting my hands dirty on both the Core and Cloud codebases, and in particular the features that are on the intersection of both. Looking forward to getting to know more people here, hearing your feedback and learning about your workflows.

Hello, Sam here. salotz on github. I'm working on a very new startup https://ibeks.io and setting up a development environment currently. Happy to find a Compose + Build System + Test Runner + Developer Environment solution. Now all I need is that plugin SDK so I can integrate my build system. Dealing with this stuff has always kept me from hacking more on services. I'm also pretty new to garden, K8s, etc.

Hello everyone! My name is Dmitry. I am working on my pet-project, which also will be my diploma for bachelor's degree 🙂 I was glad to find such comfortable solution to develop a microservice architecture and not to drown in DevOps! I really appreciate Garden and its philosophy. One of the most modern framework i've ever seen 🙂

Hi all! My name is My name is Mani. I am looking to see how to use E2E and config checks for infrastructure scenarios.

Hey all! My name is Romans and I'm a Cloud Engineer/DevOps at OVO.com. I would like to evaluate Garden.io as a replacement for our current setup for our team (minikube, colima). If that works out we might be your enterprise clients 😸 .

Hey there! I'm Jenha, CTO and devops at another no-code startup. I'm adopting Garden to our workflow and hope it would enhance our devex - we have couple of rust/ts monorepos for backend and frontend respectively.

hello, fellow gardeners, my name is Edmund, you can call me Ed if you hate typing, just like me

Hey everyone! I am Bhavya Sachdeva. I am an Undergraduate student from India. I am exploring DevOps and Cloud and found this project. I am looking forward to contribute to this project. 🙂

Heya! My name is Jakob Steinn, I'm born Icelandic but grew up in Denmark. I'm building Good Tape together with my colleagues, and very excited to see what Garden has to offer!

hi i am Eddie, software architect at Matillion. Trying out garden to solve our developer workfllow issue

Hi, I am Smriti. I am here to explore and contribute to Garden documentation. On the same lines, I need some help fixing build errors for my first PR in the Garden repo. https://github.com/garden-io/garden/pull/4872 here is the PR. Thanks!

Hey all, I'm Jess. A Senior DevOps Engineer at Epistemix, an agent based modeling startup. I'm using garden to bridge the gaps between infrastructure and application development with an internal development platform kinda feel. Garden has really hit all my check boxes so far, and I've just about finished onboarding my first project with plans to integrate the rest of our ecosystem over the next few months. We're a smaller team, and other solutions felt too complicated or overreaching for our use cases. Garden has been easy to learn, with great documentation and examples. It feels like there's plenty of room for us to grow with Garden from our side. Fun story: I actually discovered and evaluated Garden during an embedded interview process where I had to create infrastructure and deploy their application stack, as well as develop a monitoring stack, and ended up giving a 10 minute demo which in retrospect felt dedicated to Garden, and ended up covering very little about their own stack in the demo. I got too excited by Garden and lost focus. I didn't get the job, but I did find the perfect tool for my own development style and my current team's needs.

hello

Hola 🧞‍♀️ ! My name is Génesis, I work in DevOps, I love visual arts and I do yoga and hiking. I hope I can give a try to Garden in an Openshift development cluster 😊

Hello, I'm Johannes, a Junior Software Engineer (fresh out of college) based in Germany. I've been tasked with finding a solution to implement Garden in our project to streamline our development process. Currently, our application consists of more than 20 microservices, and the development and testing process has become quite challenging. Each time we make changes, we have to run a test system pipeline to push those changes to a test server, which takes approximately 10 minutes. We're eager to explore how Garden's sync mode can help us improve this situation. 😊 EDIT: I collect vinyl, love analog photography (minolta x700) and custom machanical keyboards 🙂

Hello, I'm David, a Junior Software Engineer I am trying to setup Garden on our current CI process. It's actually simplifying all my build/test step for all our microservices in a k3d local environment.
