Our projects
In addition to developing the Apache Airflow application itself, we are also developing other tools that work with it. It may have a different or identical release cadence to Apache Airflow. Some of them have not yet had their first official release.
- Production Docker image - released together with Airflow
- Official Airflow Community Helm Chart - released on separate cadence
- Apache Airflow Providers - released on roughly monthly cadence
- Apache Airflow Client Python - python client for Airflow REST API
Refactoring and cleanups
- Improving airflow's test coverage: #35127
- Adding tests for modules that are missing them: #35442
Cleaning up various non-production related issues after 2.0 has been released. That includes stabilizing Quarantined issues, cleaning up the release and dev tools documentation improving contribution documentation, etc.
