Show HN: We built a developer-first open-source Zapier alternative
For the past few months we’ve been building Trigger.dev and can now share our beta with you: <a href="https://github.com/triggerdotdev/trigger.dev">https://github.com/triggerdotdev/trigger.dev</a>. Trigger.dev is an open source platform that makes it easy for developers to create event-driven background tasks directly in their code. You write workflows using our SDK, and can view all the runs in our web app.<p>Why we built this:<p>- We found current workflow / automation tools like Zapier and n8n are good for simple tasks, but not for more advanced use cases.<p>- Dropping down into code in these tools is just not a great experience. We prefer using our own IDEs, version control, and having access to GitHub Copilot etc.<p>- Sometimes, a workflow requires us to query a database or handle some sensitive information. It would be great if this data wasn’t sent to a third party.<p>Our beta version lets you:<p>- Trigger workflows from webhooks, custom events or schedules (CRON)<p>- Use API integrations with Slack, GitHub, Shopify and Resend. We’re adding more of these each week.<p>- Add delays of up to 1 year. Workflows will resume where they left off, even if your server has gone down.<p>- Support for Fetch and subscribing to generic webhooks.<p>- Observe every workflow run in the app (great for debugging).<p>- Open source MIT license so anyone can self-host the platform.<p>We’re still early so would love your feedback and opinions. Feel free to try us out for free – and if you want a specific API integrated, just let us know.<p>Main website: <a href="https://trigger.dev">https://trigger.dev</a>

Tell HN: GitHub will delete your private repo if you lose access to the original
I was surprised to see this in my email today:<p>> Your private repository baobabKoodaa/laaketutka-scripts (forked from futurice/how-to-get-healthy) has been deleted because you are no longer a collaborator on futurice/how-to-get-healthy.<p>That was an MIT-licensed open source project I worked on years ago. We published the source code for everyone to use, so I certainly did not expect to lose access to it just because someone at my previous company has been doing spring cleaning at GitHub! I had a 100% legal fork of the project, and now it's gone... why?<p>Turns out I don't even have a local copy of it anymore, so this actually caused me data loss. I'm fine with losing access to this particular codebase, I'm not using HN as customer support to regain access. I just wanted everyone to be aware that GitHub does this.
