Appwrite

MongoDB is now supported in Appwrite’s open-source, self-hosted version. This integration brings Appwrite on top of a database many teams already know and trust, while keeping the same APIs, SDKs, and workflows. Less operational overhead. More flexibility for self-hosted teams. What this means for you: • Native MongoDB support in self-hosted Appwrite • Drop-in adapter with no changes to your app code • Familiar workflows for MongoDB-based teams • Fully open-source and self-hosted If your team already relies on MongoDB, getting started with Appwrite just became a lot more flexible.

We benchmarked TTL-based list caching in Appwrite across 100,000 requests. Average latency dropped by more than 2x, and throughput nearly doubled under the same workload. If your app runs the same queries repeatedly, this changes how you think about performance. Read more: appwrite.io/blog/post/ttl-…

Announcing the Variables API in Appwrite 🚀 You can now create, update, and manage environment variables for functions, sites, and projects programmatically using the Appwrite Server SDKs. It helps maintain consistency across environments, simplifies secret rotation, and makes it easier to integrate configuration into your existing workflows.

@arnabch20k Great work on this Arnab ❤️🤘

Go check this out, you gonna love the dx here a lot. Everythings incremental. Complex apps like notification systems would be pretty easy to build with this now. Tons of stories revolved while it was evolving 😌 The best part of this -> it opens a lot of possibilities

We have upgraded how Realtime subscriptions work in Appwrite 🔥 Subscriptions now use a message-based protocol over a single persistent WebSocket instead of relying on URL query strings. This allows you to manage multiple subscriptions on a single connection, update them in place, and avoid URL length limits. The result is more predictable behavior and better scalability for realtime applications. Read more: appwrite.io/blog/post/anno…

me watching claude fix the bug in my code it just wrote 10 minutes ago:

me asking chatgpt to "explain it properly" and it starts healing my inner child too

GPT-5.5 is here, but what actually changed for developers? Benchmarks look strong, pricing shifts matter, and the real story is how it performs in real workflows. We broke it down so you do not have to dig through system cards and scattered data. Read the full analysis: appwrite.io/blog/post/gpt-…

Here's your reminder to be polite to claude...

@iyinoluwa_06 Don't we all?

@appwrite I hate this feeling 😭💔

pov: writing code by hand because i reached my rate limits

Builds should fail when something is broken, not because they run out of time. We have increased build timeouts to 45 minutes on Appwrite Cloud for Pro plans and above, giving teams more headroom for larger builds and reducing unnecessary deployment failures. Read more: appwrite.io/changelog/entr…

You accidentally say "Hello" to Claude Opus 4.7 and it consumes 6% of your session limit.

Your backend choices should not limit how you build ⚡️ We’re going live today at 10:45 AM ET with MongoDB, joined by @adityaoberai, to show how it works with Appwrite in practice and what’s coming next. If you’re building modern applications and want to avoid unnecessary tradeoffs, this is worth your time. Watch live: youtube.com/live/BW5HYZfv4…

@undt_contact We an take care of all kind of "back end" needs

@appwrite The app that looks like a butthole needs a reliable backend, folks

If you’re building with Claude Code, your app still needs a backend that can handle real users, data, and scale. A reliable backend ensures your app continues to work smoothly as it grows. In this guide, we walk through how to set up a complete backend with Appwrite, including authentication, databases, storage, and serverless functions, so your app runs reliably with fewer issues over time. Everything your app needs to move beyond a prototype and allow you to focus on the business logic. Read more: appwrite.io/blog/post/back…
