We’re thrilled to announce that JAQ Stack has been officially accepted into the Docker-Sponsored Open Source (DSOS) Program!
This partnership recognizes JAQ Stack as a valuable open-source initiative supporting developers worldwide.

🎉 What This Means​

As part of the program, JAQ Stack now benefits from:

  • ✅ Free Docker Team Subscription for the organization
  • 🧩 Docker Scout access for image insights and supply-chain security
  • ⚙️ Free autobuilds for automatic image publishing
  • 🚀 Rate-limit removal for all users pulling JAQ Stack public images
  • 🏷️ Official open-source badging on Docker Hub (visible within two weeks)

All official JAQ Stack images can be found here:
👉 hub.docker.com/u/jaqstack

For ready-to-run examples:
📦 jaqstack/jaqstack-examples

💡 Why It Matters​

This sponsorship allows us to:

  • Keep our Helidon / Angular / SQL-NoSQL containers freely available
  • Deliver faster, more reliable builds for the community
  • Enhance security and transparency through Docker Scout integration
  • Maintain open, rate-limit-free access for developers everywhere

It’s another step toward our mission — making full-stack development faster, simpler, and open for everyone.

🧭 Our Commitment​

JAQ Stack will continue to embody its founding principles:

  • 🆓 Open Source — MIT-licensed and freely available
  • 🤝 Community-Driven — guided by your ideas and contributions
  • 🔍 Transparent Development — open discussions, roadmap, and feedback

With Docker’s support, we’re even better positioned to maintain consistent, reliable builds and grow our open-source ecosystem.

🙌 Thank You​

This milestone wouldn’t have been possible without the community — contributors, testers, and supporters who’ve believed in JAQ Stack since its early days.
Your feedback and collaboration keep this project evolving.
