Some of DDEV's sponsors via GitHub Sponsors

Thank you!

We just want to take a moment to thank all of the amazing sponsors of the DDEV open source project. All of you reading this know that we’ve been working for years now to make DDEV a financially sustainable project, so it can serve you into the future. So many have responded to that call. Thank you!

Even though we’re going to mention the biggest sponsors first, we want all of you to know that your sponsorship matters too, and with care we can expand to many, many small sponsors to ensure DDEV’s resilience and sustainability.

Major Sponsors

  • Platform.sh has been a major sponsor of DDEV for a few years now. You may know that they recently reduced their sponsorship, but they remain our largest single supporter, and we appreciate it greatly. Platform.sh has also transferred the “ddev” domain names to the DDEV Foundation and will be transferring the “DDEV” trademark. And they’re funding Randy’s plane ticket to Drupalcon Atlanta!
  • Tag1 Consulting stepped up to generously support DDEV at a very significant level so many years ago, and has continued doing that. And they don’t just offer outstanding financial support, they’re always making clear that they use and support DDEV, and we get to see them at conferences.
  • Mobilistics and i-gelb both sponsor at the $500/month level.
  • All these lovely organizations sponsor at the $100/month (or a bit higher) level: Lullabot, Affinity Bridge, Webikon, FameHelsinki, OPTASY, Gizra, Cambrico, Agaric, Centarro, Craft CMS, Redfin Solutions, b13. And brand new this week (welcome!) Full Fat Things.

So many more wonderful sponsors!

Here are some of many sponsors who help out via GitHub Sponsors.

GitHub Sponsors

In-Kind Sponsors

The open-source community has lots of folks helping out multiple collaborators. In our case, MacStadium provides us testing resources, and JetBrains provides a subscription to their IDE products, thanks!

But we never forget Docker. Docker has adopted us in the Docker-Sponsored-Open-Source (DSOS) program for a few years now, and this means that all of your image pulls are sponsored in that project. You may know that normal image pulls will be strictly limited starting April 1, 2025, but because of the DSOS, users of DDEV won’t hit that restriction.

And please don’t forget that the open-source Docker project underlies every single Docker provider. It doesn’t matter if you’re using OrbStack or Lima or Docker Desktop or whatever, they’re all built on top of the amazing Docker open-source project.

JSON Detail about Sponsorships

We recently set up a full updated JSON feed that can be used to see exactly where DDEV’s sponsorship comes from and how we’re doing. You can see the latest data any day in the all sponsorships feed. And Mark Conroy has built a web component that can be used to show where we’re at on any website. Thank you!

Many Ways to Sponsor

We have almost too many ways that you can sponsor, but we want to make it easy for you and your organization.

  • For individuals and some organizations, GitHub Sponsors is super easy, takes moments and can be changed any time.
  • We are happy to invoice your organization and do more of a “support contract” so that you don’t have to explain open-source to your finance department. We accept ACH, Wise.com, bank transfer, IBAN, SWIFT, checks, we’ll work with your organization to make it work for you. Just send us a note via the contact page or any other way.
  • PayPal to DDEV

Oops, are you missing or did I forget you?

Is your name or your organization’s name missing here? It’s easy to get it here. How much does DDEV’s support and ongoing maintenance mean to your organization?

(If I made a mistake and left you out, let me know and I’ll edit this.)
