@jbrooksuk that was more a comment to show interest. I've read the roadmaping announcement but it may worth a GitHub project or something to specify these epics and subtasks ? |

This is awesome news and never too late, I constantly come back to this project as I work in the enterprise and we have the need for self-hosted status pages (re: Atlassian is f***ing expensive). |

This is great news, but sounds like that it will take a while (considering the long wait and silence I guess this doesn't matter). Unfortunately other forks weren't successful either and I hope that 3.x will be a great comeback. Would love to help but me being an Angular guy and also time is always an issue. But I wish you all the best with your "baby" and hope you can continue where you left and bring it back to live soon. <3 |

@TheDelta that's absolutely a fair concern, but that won't be the case going forward. The previous owners never communicated that the project had changed hands, and that wasn't my place to do so either. I've already started rewriting the core of Cachet privately (in preparation for the purchase to complete). I've made a start at:
There is a lot to do, of course. But progress is being made. Next, I need to decide what to do with the current issues and pull requests. I'm thinking I'll go through each one, make a list including:
By the end of it, everything will be closed and we'll create a new project board or something with a list of the bits that need doing. |

@MarcHagen thanks! You're right, there is a lot more to it than simply rebuilding it like-for-like. There's a lot of work, but I'm confident we can do this 💪 |

@dovka thank you for your kind words ❤️ Cachet will keep its API, though it may not be 100% compatible with the current 2.x API, simply because we can do things much better and offer way better performance now. |

This is awesome, all the best for the project. If you need any help maintaining the project please keep creating Github issues about your plans. Once we have a good base code, all of us can contribute. |

Happy to test and proof-read documentation. Moved to another open source status page system because this one wasn't being maintained, then when that stopped being maintained went onto Atlassian (which is quite restrictive on it's customisation unless you go for the $399 per month plan). Would be great to be able to go back to the first choice again. Are there plans to do a docker/container release of the new version 3.x? P.S. The blog link is dead on the Cachet HQ website (cachethq.io) |

|
@misterjaytee thank you! Cachet really set the bar for open-source status page systems and we're going to take the 👑 back and make it better still. I'm sure there will be a Docker container available with 3.x once we launch it. Also, I've just shipped a new Cachet website. There is no active blog (currently). |

Wonderful news!!! I would suggest definitely leaving the door open for translations. I suspect there is a large amount of interest globally. I’m happy to help test! |

Thanks! Translations are without a doubt a huge part of what made Cachet successful the first time round. We won't be completely dropping them, but the existing ones may not be compatible to begin with. |

It's been a long time since I've been in the Laravel community but I've been itching to get back in it in some capacity. I still have need for this even to this day and would love to see some of it come to life. I'm willing to join in on the development process in any capacity. Do you all have a Discord community you are coordinating in? If not, I'll be happy to help set it up since I run Discord communities on the side. |

|
@MatthewSH 👋🏻 I love that people are still actively using Cachet and even new companies need it too. We do have a Slack, but I do think Discord may be better suited going forward. For now, I think we'll stick to issues and discussions. Maybe transition to Discord in the future. |

I am a bit late to the party here, really glad to hear that this project is catching some fresh wind again! :) I would be more than happy to offer my assistance and time to lend a helping hand to get this baby on its feet again. While the backend stuff isn't quite my cup of tea, I would be more than happy to help with documentation (in English), and translations to Norwegian - as I do really hope that translations will be kept in the new revamped version. Another area I can contribute to is testing, Docker-related stuff and ways to interface the new Cachet with PowerShell for those using Windows. Personally, I would also love a role for Ansible to automate the deployment, which I can help with. |

Hey @AdoDreamtilt, sorry for the delay! I was promoted at my job and it's been a busy couple of months while transitioning in that role (and the project we have on). I've received a couple of emails recently about vulnerabilities in 2.x which I am considering fixing in the short term. For 3.x, I've also been working on it recently, mostly smaller fixes. https://github.com/cachethq/core Your offer to help is much appreciated. I wonder if we could have a call at some point to discuss how we could move forward with that? |

Hello, I read your conversation with another poster above about having a webhooks feature for 3.x. I was curious, is it 100% in the works, can we expect to see it sometime soon? Love the work you and the contributors have done so far, keep it up! |

Hey everyone,
It’s been a while 👋🏻
I want to start by saying that I owe so much to Cachet. My career at Laravel being just one of the many things I'm grateful for.
9 years ago, I released Cachet while working on another SaaS application. Cachet became my primary focus and it reached many heights. Fortune 50 companies were using it, it reached #1 on Hacker News, topped Product Hunt and casually sat in GitHub's trending projects for weeks like it was no big deal.
5 years ago, I sold Cachet. The buyers and I had big plans for the project. Unfortunately, those plans never came to life. I personally hold myself responsible for that. Within just a few weeks, my brother passed away and my first daughter was born. After that, I never felt right working on Cachet.
Fast forward 5 years and things have changed dramatically. I'm now in a much better place personally, I love my job at Laravel, I've launched a new product, Checkmango and I have a deep, burning desire to get my baby back.
A few months ago I mentioned in an issue that I was speaking with the owners to see if I could get Cachet back. It's taken us some time but we're now at a point where I have something to announce.
Cachet, is once again, mine 🎉
Immediately I have thoughts… Maybe I'm too late now? Maybe too much time has passed? Cachet may've blazed the way for open-source status page systems, but who's even using it anymore?
Honestly, I don’t think that’s a problem. I still get several emails a week about Cachet and the website + repository receive thousands of visitors a month. I firmly believe that we're in a good position to get Cachet going again.
So what's the plan, James?
Looking through the codebase is quite painful... I'm going to rebuild Cachet with Vue.js, Inertia, Laravel 10.x and Tailwind.
The current 2.4 branch of Cachet is old. It's easier to rebuild than it is to upgrade at this point. As much as I want 3.x to be 100% compatible, there are some things we need to keep in mind:
This isn't going to be an overnight job. It's going to take me a while and you'll be able to follow along too. Shortly, I'm going to be cleaning up the repository:
I’ve put real money into making this happen. This is happening.
Let’s make this super collaborative. Can you help? I’d really appreciate it if you could help me re-build Cachet. Here's what I'm looking for:
cachethq/docsrepository with VitePress installed and ready for the old docs to be migrated.I guess that's everything for now. Let me know what you think and importantly, whether you can help.
Thanks ❤️
