Edge Case

A community for developers pushing the edge of technology.

We are a group of builders working with AI, LLMs, cloud, serverless functions and WebAssembly.

What we believe

Building In The Open

The best developer tools come from communities, not marketing departments. Edge Case exists to share what we're learning, help each other debug hard problems, and push the boundaries of what's possible at the edge.

Code Over Slides

Working examples you can clone and deploy, not product demos.

Community Over Audience

We're here to build together, not broadcast at you.

Open By Default

Everything we can open source, we do. MIT, Apache 2.0, and BSD-3-Clause.

Try Weird Things

The edge is new territory — we're still figuring out what's possible.
