Hey Product Hunt! We're in October, it's Hacktoberfest, a month-long celebration of open-source projects, their maintainers, and the entire community of contributors. There are many ways to contribute: code, design, document, share, sponsor... Let's celebrate this month by supporting open-source products! Who's launching an open-source product this month? Any projects that I missed? Drop a link to your product launch in the comments, and I'll add it to the list. Enjoy your launch!

We are launching a new version of Tiledesk. Open-source visual, no-code designer where LLM/GPT AI meets a flexible 'graph' approach. You can create conversations and automations effortlessly – a Voiceflow and Botpress alternative. Here's the β€œNotify Me" page to make sure you don't forget it: https://www.producthunt.com/prod... We'd love to hear your thoughts! πŸ™ Mark your calendar: Our official launch is scheduled for October 19th! πŸš€

Thanks for the initiative! Today we launched Distillery, the open-source alternative to Midjourney. We are the first and only generative art company that is truly open source. Our models are open source; our methods are disclosed and discussed; you can find the full workflow of all our images in the metadata of the images themselves, which means that anyone can reproduce at home, down to the last pixel, any image we make. We want everyone to know exactly how we do our art, because we learn how to create amazing art by learning from each other. And that leads us to do even more amazing art. Our mission is to level up the generative art community! https://www.producthunt.com/post...

@fmerian it's spread out across a bunch of them. We use ComfyUI as the base engine to run Stable Diffusion: https://github.com/comfyanonymou... (obviously not my repository) To use it, I made a connector that lets me edit and send workflows to Comfy using a single line of code. It's gotten 29 stars on github so far: https://github.com/fidecastro/Co... Finally, this is the worker we use for serverless cloud GPUs: https://github.com/fidecastro/di... (we use a startup called Runpod to host our GPUs) All the models we host are open source; all but one (SDXL) was finetuned by us. This is our main model, Bloody Mary: https://civitai.com/models/11396... Finally, we currently have just over 90 low-rank adaptation ("lora") models in our system, all open source. This is the list of all of them, with the links to download and their respective author for due attribution: https://distillery-dev.github.io...
@felipe_infante_de_castro @tornike_phkhovelishvili sharing is caring, and open source embodies the spirit of generosity, collaboration, and innovation that fuels progress in the digital age
