Open Source
Giving back to the community
We believe open source is the future of software — transparent, collaborative, and designed to benefit everyone.

Why Open Source Matters

Open source software powers the internet — from operating systems and programming languages to the frameworks behind the world’s biggest platforms. But it’s more than just code you can read. It’s a philosophy of transparency, collaboration, and community-driven innovation.

  • Transparent: You know exactly what the code is doing — no black boxes, no hidden fees.
  • Adaptable: Open source software can be extended and tailored to your business needs.
  • Cost-effective: No license lock-in or recurring fees to use the software.
  • Secure: With a global community contributing and auditing, vulnerabilities are found and fixed faster.

How Our Clients Benefit

When you choose open source, you’re choosing freedom, control, and longevity. Our clients benefit from software that’s built on solid foundations and free from vendor lock-in — with the added reassurance that we know the code inside-out.

  • Greater control over custom features and integrations
  • Freedom to host wherever you choose — no SaaS limitations
  • Confidence in code that’s been peer-reviewed and community tested
  • Ability to contribute back or build upon it over time

Our Commitment to Open Source

At Neon, open source is part of our DNA. We actively maintain and contribute to open source projects, share knowledge, and build in the open whenever we can. It’s not just about giving back — it’s about building better tools for everyone, including our clients.

  • We maintain several public GitHub projects, including our flagship platform, Lunar
  • We contribute fixes, improvements, and packages to the Laravel ecosystem
  • We encourage our clients to embrace open development where possible

🌙 Lunar: Our Open Source E-Commerce Platform

Lunar is a modern e-commerce platform for Laravel that we created to give developers the tools to build bespoke, scalable, and maintainable storefronts. It's fully open source and designed from the ground up with flexibility in mind — perfect for brands that need more than just a theme and a plugin.

  • Fully extensible and API-ready
  • Supports custom product types, pricing rules, and checkout flows
  • Built with Laravel, Tailwind CSS, and Alpine/Vue
  • Actively maintained and backed by a growing community
