This project stands on the shoulders of giants.
It exists because of the countless engineers, maintainers, writers, reviewers, testers, and community members who have built and sustained the open-source software it depends on. Their work made it possible to move faster, build better, and focus on solving real problems instead of reinventing the foundations.
I want to explicitly acknowledge and thank the people behind the open-source projects that make this work possible:
- Python
- Dagster
- Apache Airflow
- PostgreSQL
- MariaDB
- Apache Superset
- Metabase
- dbt Core
- HashiCorp Vault
- Docker Compose
- PyYAML
- jsonschema
- argcomplete
- setuptools
- wheel
Open source is not just a development model; it is a shared public good. In many cases, open-source software is not only flexible and transparent, but also more reliable than proprietary software, because it benefits from the scrutiny, care, and contributions of many maintainers and contributors across time. That collective stewardship often produces software that is robust, well-tested, and resilient.
To everyone who has contributed to these projects—whether through code, documentation, design, bug reports, issue triage, discussion, sponsorship, or maintenance—thank you.
This project is, in part, yours.
