Built in the open
The hosted application runs on Vercel with Turso/libSQL, Supabase Storage, and Brevo transactional email. The interface uses React and Vite, with a Node.js/Express backend.
The repository includes setup instructions, user and moderation guides, contribution guidelines, and a security reporting policy. The software is licensed under GPL-3.0-only.
Development was assisted by OpenAI Codex.
Early release
Devdevian is actively evolving. Bugs, rough edges, and changes are expected. This release has not received an independent security audit.
Search metadata and a sitemap are available for the public website. Individual forum publications still use hash routes and are not yet separately optimized for search indexing.
