  • Paused free projects are deleted after 90 days

    Starting today, free projects that stay paused for 90 days will be deleted, including all of their resources. Affected projects receive email alerts before anything is deleted.

    Reclaiming resources from long-inactive free projects keeps the platform sustainable, affordable, and reliable for everyone building on Appwrite. Projects on Pro and Enterprise plans are never paused or deleted for inactivity, so your production workloads stay untouched.

    This only applies to projects on free-tier organizations. To keep a paused project, open it in the Appwrite Console to resume it, or upgrade its organization to a paid plan before the 90-day window ends.

  • Announcing the Appwrite React library

    The Appwrite React library is now available. It is primarily made for authentication for now, shipping an AppwriteProvider and a small set of hooks (useAuth, useUser, useSignIn, useSignUp, useSignOut) that handle the boilerplate around session hydration, OAuth, and current user state.

    The Appwrite React library helps with authentication across client-side rendered frameworks and server-side rendered frameworks such as Next.js and TanStack Start.

  • Enforce minimum length and character rules with Password strength

    Appwrite Auth now lets you enforce Password strength on your project. Set a minimum length and require any combination of an uppercase letter, a lowercase letter, a number, and a special character, so passwords that are too weak are rejected when users sign up or change their password.

    Password strength is configured from the Auth > Security tab in the Appwrite Console, alongside password history and the password dictionary. Existing users keep their current password and only need to meet the new rules the next time they change it.
