🎄 2025 Wrap-Up & Happy Holidays!

[MickLesk]

Hey everyone 😄,

The year is coming to an end and we wanted to take a moment to look back.

Some numbers

• 24,000+ stars on GitHub
• 7,000+ members on Discord
• 400+ scripts in the repo
• Countless bug reports, feature requests, and ideas

When we look at these numbers, it's hard to believe how far we've come. This isn't just a project anymore — it's a community.

Thank you

To everyone who contributed this year — whether you wrote code, fixed bugs, came up with ideas, improved documentation, or just helped someone out in Discord. Every single contribution matters.

Special shoutout to our regular contributors who keep showing up, week after week. You know who you are.

And of course — tteck started all of this. The fact that it keeps growing and improving is a testament to what he built and to all of you carrying it forward.

Highlights from 2025

Looking back at the changelog, we shipped a lot this year:

• Major core improvements to how scripts work
• Tons of new application scripts
• more Alpine-based variants for lightweight deployments
• Better documentation and contribution guides
• Website improvements and new features
• And probably a hundred things we're forgetting right now

Holidays

Real talk: the next few days will be quiet. We're all spending time with friends and family — as we should.

PRs and issues will be handled slower. Nothing urgent will be ignored, but don't expect fast turnarounds until after New Year's.

Take a break. Touch grass. Eat too much. We'll be back.

What's coming in 2026?

A small preview of what we're working on:

• More base OS templates — besides Debian, Ubuntu, and Alpine, we're adding more options that Proxmox supports (think Rocky, Fedora, and others)
• Polishing the new features from the past weeks — there's always room for improvement
• Better tooling for script development and testing
• Your feedback drives what we build — keep it coming

Got ideas? Drop them in Discussions or Discord. We read everything.

Merry Christmas, Happy Hanukkah, and whatever else you celebrate — have a good one. 🎆

See you in 2026!
