Question about project health, versioning and self-hosted reliability

[Quent1OK]

Hi team 👋

First of all, I just want to say that Azimutt is genuinely one of the best database exploration tools I've come across. The ERD experience, the ability to handle large and messy schemas, the AML language... it's exactly what I've been looking for for years. I'm really impressed by what you've built here.

I'm currently planning to self-host Azimutt on a Kubernetes cluster for internal use at my company, and I'd love to commit to it as our go-to database documentation tool. Before doing so, I have a few questions about the release process that I couldn't find answers to in the docs.

Observations that raised some questions

• The latest commit on main appears to be from ~8 months ago (603bc8c)
• The Docker image ghcr.io/azimuttapp/azimutt:main was last pushed on 2026-03-23 — so it seems more recent than what the GitHub commit history shows
• There are no versioned tags (no semver, no GitHub releases)
• The Helm chart README itself explicitly states it is not versioned

This creates some uncertainty: is the public GitHub repo actually in sync with what gets built and deployed? Or is there a separate, private development branch?

Questions

1. Is the public repo up to date? Or is active development happening in a private branch/repo, with only occasional syncs to the public one?

2. Is there a plan for proper versioning? Even a simple tagging strategy (e.g. v2025.03) with a changelog would make a big difference for self-hosters — it would allow pinning to a known-good version and understanding what changed between updates.

3. How stable is the self-hosted experience intended to be? Is it a fully supported deployment path, or more of a best-effort community feature alongside the main SaaS offering?

I'm really hoping the answer is positive, because I genuinely want to use Azimutt long-term and make it part of our internal tooling. I just want to make sure I'm not building infrastructure on something that could silently diverge or break without warning.

Thanks a lot for the work you're doing on this, and for any clarification you can provide! 🙏
