Awesome to see an open source project in this space! However, the docs say the service is production ready and v1, yet there seem to be no docs on how to run the open source version (except for a brief homebrew example in the README). So how do I run this? For example with a DB?

I also noticed that the v0 API is deprecated and discouraged but the v1 API is „work in progress“. To me, that doesn’t inspire confidence that the product is not going to have some breaking changes in API and design?

Is there something I am missing?



We have it on our backlog[0] to add documentation on how to run it with Kubernetes, at least.

Very sorry about the "work in progress" moniker on our v1 APIs. We developed the v1 APIs based on our real-world experience running the Authzed.com service for ourselves and others, and we just finished their implementation and porting everything over. We will remove that warning ASAP!

One thing to note though, is that we thought about calling our v1 APIs v5 or something, because we didn't want to give the impression that they will never change. We intend to continue to improve the APIs, sometimes in backward incompatible ways, but will just keep the existing APIs around for a very long™ period of time, similar to how Stripe handles their API versioning.[1]
