PAYLOAD 3.0 UPDATE: Join our live Discord community call at 10 AM EDT (that's in less than 90 minutes) as @JamesMikrut and the team walk through what's remaining to reach 3.0 stable, effectively making Payload the @nextjs CMS.
Congrats to @payloadcms and @FlowiseAI for making it into the top 10 GitHub Rising Stars of 2024! Payload raised more than React and Next! I highly recommend both projects.

Payload Cloud gives you everything you need to run in production:
- @MongoDB Atlas database
- Automatic deploys w/ zero downtime
- S3 file storage
- Email by @resendlabs (coming soon)
- Lots, lots more
