garnix is joining forces with Shopify.

Sadly, as part of this transition, the hosted garnix<br>service will shut down on July 15th 2026. But we are open sourcing the garnix<br>codebase, available here; we hope<br>this will help you smoothly move to using your own instance or a shared<br>one, and maybe help the project live on and evolve. If you are interested in operating a public community instance, please get<br>in touch — we’d be happy to talk.

We will also be deleting all user data on July 15th. This includes build artifacts. Be sure to download what you want to keep before then.

Thank you all for using garnix and for the feedback and support over the years. While we are excited about our next step at Shopify, we will also miss working with this community. From the very first, with generous donations in our Open Collective days and thoughtful feedback, you've been great.

Signed,

the garnix team (Alex David, Sönke Hahn, and Julian K. Arni)
