Pods Framework Gets Backed by …a Few Big Names

Code is poetry
Developing solutions
Now the game has changed

We’ve got some very big news.

We would first like to give a big thank you for the generosity and help from our Kickstarter backers, the donations from our users, and time from our contributors! Without you, the innovations in this plugin would not have been possible. Now, our new sponsors will also help to ensure we can continue making awesome features and fine tune everything we do for Pods 2.0 and beyond.

Keeping a free plugin of this magnitude alive is not for the faint of heart. We’ve managed to keep it going for the past few years on a shoestring budget and enormous contributor effort. It’s been an amazing road, despite the bumps, and I’m so proud that we’ve made it to where we are today.

Stick around below the jump for more, but without further ado, we’re excited to announce the first three official sponsors of the Pods Framework!

That’s right! Automattic, as our new Premiere Sponsor, has decided to back Pods
and provide us with the funding we needed to get to the next level!

MarkNet Group has continued to provide us with much needed funding
and has even donated their development time to help our continued growth.

RD2 has also generously joined our cause!
Look for very awesome stuff coming from RD2 in the future!

I can’t thank Automattic and Matt enough for backing Pods, it really hits home on a very personal level for me. MarkNet Group and RD2 are devoted to building awesome projects using WordPress, which is really important for us. Now our team can focus on developing the features you’ve been craving. Speaking of team.. check out the right sidebar of the dev blog to see a revamped list of our contributors!
