Strengths and trade-offs

Why teams consider it

marketplace

open-source

payments

Source code and Apache-2.0 license are visible before adoption

Repository activity is available as a current maintenance signal

What to validate

Self-hosting transfers upgrades, backups, monitoring, and incident response to your team

GitHub popularity is not a security, quality, or product-fit guarantee

The Apache-2.0 license still needs review against your distribution and commercial model

Support quality, migration effort, and production hardening vary by project
