# Follow Open Source News

Open source powers modern software development but the ecosystem is vast. Major framework releases, licensing changes, security patches, and new projects worth watching appear constantly. Missing an important update can mean running vulnerable code or missing a tool that could save weeks of work.

The new_stories and story_details skills surface open source announcements as they appear in the tech community. Show HN posts introduce new projects, and major release announcements for established projects generate significant discussion with practical migration advice.

Developers evaluating new tools, maintainers tracking the ecosystem, CTOs making technology choices, and open source contributors finding projects to work on all benefit from monitoring open source news. Community discussion provides real-world experience reports that documentation alone cannot offer.
