Magny is now free for open source projects

We have been true fans of free/open source projects, even using them actively for more than 30+ years. Lots of open source projects are developed and maintained by open source enthusiasts like ourselves.

Now it is time to give back and help open source teams to be more productive.

Why we love open source

Open source refers to software whose source code is available to the public, allowing anyone to view, modify, and distribute the software freely.

Here are our reasons why open source is beneficial for the community:

1. Collaboration: Open source encourages collaboration among developers from diverse backgrounds and locations. This results in a global community of contributors who work together to improve the software, fix bugs, and add new features.
2. Transparency: Open source software is transparent, as the source code is accessible to everyone. This fosters trust and accountability within the community, as anyone can review and verify the code for security vulnerabilities or other issues.
3. Accessibility: Open source makes software accessible to a wider audience, as it can be freely used, modified, and distributed. This allows for greater participation and engagement from individuals and organizations, regardless of their economic or geographic status.
4. Flexibility: Open source provides flexibility for customization and adaptation to specific needs. Users can modify the software to suit their requirements, without being dependent on a single vendor or entity.

Magny for open source projects

Are you working on an open source project and looking for a great search bar (a.ka. command palette) for your SaaS app? Then apply for Magny Pro for free!

Please send us an email with the following information from your (custom domain) email address that is linked to your project's website:

• Name of the open source project
• A short description
• A link to your project's website

Requirements

To apply, you need to be a project lead or a core contributor for an open source project that is at least 30 days old and actively maintained.

Open source projects need to use a standard open source license and must be non-commercial. Your project should not have paid support or pay contributors. If you or your company work on commercial projects, the paid version of Magny (Pro or Enterprise) will suit you perfectly.

What you'll get

When you apply and get accepted, you'll receive one renewable year of Magny Pro for as many users as you need.

Your free subscription will be renewed every year if your project still meets the requirements.

We'll review all requests and accept them at our discretion. Good luck! 😀
