Announcing a new Appwrite Release - a step closer to becoming a complete OSS Firebase Alternative

We are happy to share that we've just released Appwrite 0.8 for Flutter that takes Appwrite a step closer to become a complete open-source alternative to Firebase. The new Appwrite version adds support for JWT auth, ARM devices, Anonymous login, and advanced image manipulations. We'd love any feedback and requests for new features!

Appwrite already has support for Database, Authentication, Storage and Cloud Functions and the team is already working on adding support for real-time, GraphQL, MongoDB, and other pretty cool features that are in the pipeline.

We'd love to learn what features you'd like to see next…
