Original project release post here for context: www.reddit.com/r/selfhosted/s/H4uS9GlwRJ

As a senior software engineer who’s working hard to build a tool for the self hosting community I’m hoping my post will be received better here, given the r/selfhosted’s new megathread tar pit rule for young projects… I’m reposting the Libre Closet feature update announcement here as I had planned to today on r/selfhosted.

I hope this finds some of the people who expressed interest in the project as we worked really hard to deliver on the requested features.

The intended release post read as the following:

——

First I would like to share gratitude for the warm and supportive reception Libre Closet received when I initially posted about it about a month ago. This really motivated me to take the project seriously.

I’d like to introduce ShoshannaTM who’s joined the project as one of the core maintainers.

Since the first post, we’ve gotten 88 github stars, over 3.1k docker image pulls, 2 community PRs contributed, and many helpful issues filed. We’ve made a point to try to respond to everyone in a timely manner and stay engaged with the budding community growing around this project.

We’ve focused a lot on quality and have taken the time to address bugs with numerous minor version releases.

The features and quality improvements have been made with considerable time, engineering, and intention. While myself and Shoshanna are using copilot to accelerate development, substantial upfront deliberate design was done on our part before any feature development. Additionally, nothing is taken without thorough iteration and human review. This project is not vibe coded. It is engineered and we take much pride in our craft and the quality of our work.

Please feel free to ask any questions you may have, whether about the development choices we’ve made, or about the product itself. Both of us are excited to continue to build a community around this project. 

Key changes in this version include:

As before we’ve maintained the ease of self hosting and only one docker command is needed to deploy! For everyone already hosting Libre-Closet, you simply need to pull the fresh `latest` image to update to the v0.2.0 release.

`docker run -p 3000:3000 -v wardrobe-data:/data ghcr.io/lazztech/libre-closet:latest`

We can’t wait for everyone to try it out, and we hope you enjoy V0.2.0 of Libre Closet!

Never heard of this, but it seems like an interesting idea. Probably not something I would use myself, but I wish y’all the best of luck!

Am somewhat disappointed that this isn’t the release of Open Source Clothing that you can compile (sew) at home :)

I’ve seen something like that online, I can’t remember the name but it might have been targeted towards trans people so then can get new clothes in secret or something
