- Excited to speak at Spring I/O with @salaboy.com next week in beautiful Barcelona! 🎙️ We'll show how Dapr + Microcks make testing cloud-native apps across environments a breeze. 🌩️🚀 #springio25 @daprdev.bsky.social @microcks.io @cncf.io
- Join me tomorrow on the @daprdev.bsky.social community call! @salaboy.com and I will demo what we've cooked these last weeks! 👨🍳
- 🪄 @microcks.io can now directly publish an #MCP Server endpoint on top of your @graphql.org #API mocks! Just drop your spec in Microcks, and it'll do the GraphQL schema to MCP translation for you. You can now check in a few seconds if your API is AI/LLM friendly... or not 😅

- 💯! For now, we're trying to enhance this with dev tools like our @quarkus.io DevService that allows hot reload of local files: you benefit from your IDE and still have the quick sync with Microcks. The CLI should also receive enhancements to allow this on other stacks. Thanks for the feedback!
- Thanks for the feedback! Appreciate it! Yeah, the UI editor is frequently requested, but @microcks.io took the approach of reusing "source-of-truth" artifacts and not modifying them - until now. But, as always in open source, all options remain possible! 🤩
- 🧙♂️ #MCP is all about making #API consumption easy for #AI Agents. But what about #gRPC services? Check your gRPC/Protobuf definition is AI Agent/ #Claude @anthropic.com friendly in seconds with @microcks.io automatic gRPC to MCP translation! 🤖 youtu.be/iR4OHePm-XU

- Congrats Thomas!
- Current status 🌊🌖 at #Valencia
- 🤖 Excited to showcase our #MCP on @microcks.io early prototype! We're exploring the ability to turn all your #API contracts into MCP-enabled simulations so that you can check #AI agents' ability to reuse them as tools! Check our #Claude @anthropic.com demo 🧙

- It was a pleasure meeting you and throwing some axes together 🎯
- 🤩 How awesome it is to have your project exposed by rockstars @kevindubois.com and @thomasvitale.com 🔥 Thanks a lot guys for the @microcks.io shoutout! Your « Kubernetes Native Development: from 0 to Hero » session was a blast! 💥
- #KubeCon EU 2025 starts today for me with Maintainer Summit! It’s going to be a packed week in London!
- 🧹 Friday afternoon duties: the AI Copilot features in @Microcks have now decent documentation on setup and usage 🎉 Check it out microcks.io/documentatio... and see how you can have #OpenAPI, #AsyncAPI, #GraphQL and #gRPC mocks in a breeze!
- 🍿 Check out the new #GitOps capabilities of the @microcks.io #Kubernetes Operator! Create rich and reproducible sandbox environments fully declaratively with #ArgoCD. Manage the content just by pushing changes to a Git repo 👩💻

- @microcks.io has contract testing for all the supported API types (REST, #gRPC, #GraphQL and even #Async) microcks.io/documentatio... Contrary to Pact, we don't rely on other artifacts but directly leverage standard specs for this (see medium.com/@lbroudoux/m... for a comparison of approaches)
- 🥘 We're cooking some great #AI stuff for @microcks.io next release! Generate meaningful samples to complete your raw spec with rich mocks! You can then export them in APIExamples format to share later with your team! And it's working with #OpenAPI, #AsyncAPI, #grpc and #GraphQL alike 🧙
- 📦 We shipped @microcks.io CLI v0.5.7, and it can now be installed with @homebrew-new-pkgs.bsky.social 🍻 on MacOS! This is a nice foundation for our coming #LFX Mentorship Program project: buff.ly/4gEs6uU
- 🛠️ Did some optimizations on @microcks.io CI yesterday! Thanks to @github.com new #ARM runners, we reduced build time from 1h15 to 26 min ‼️ Not too bad, considering we're building 12 container images with native compilation on different architectures, but we can still improve 💪
- 🚅 @quarkus.io + @graalvm.org are magic 🎩 We applied native compilation to @microcks.io #Async component and got a 10x startup boost! 🔥 From 1.4 sec down to 140 ms! Just append `-native` to the image name. It's gonna be awesome with #testcontainers 🧊
- 💡 Do you know that @microcks.io has a new @kubernetes.io Operator with new custom resources? It is #gitops ready and also super-fast because written in @quarkus.io 😉
- ✍️ Just wrote a new tutorial on how to mock #EDA on #ApacheKafka using #AsyncAPI v3 on @microcks.io. Get an introduction to parametrized channels, dynamic topics and random data mocking!
- 🔥 The new features allow verification of interactions while testing, elevating Microcks to a fully featured mocking library for devs - thanks to #testcontainers I can't wait to get your feedback! 🤩
- ♻️ Just updated the @microcks.io documentation on the #testcontainers modules! Adding a section on our new @dotnet@dotnet.social support 🎉 Remember, we also support #java, @quarkus.io, @golang.org & #JS/#TypeScript 👉
- Happy New Year! 🥳 Starting 2025 with some rest and my GitHub Wrapped 2024 review -

- Nice blog post Emmanuel! We started to use Diataxis on @microcks.io documentation this year and love it as well! See microcks.io/documentation/. I can’t agree more on the flexibility advice though - it’s more about guidelines than religion.
- 🏷️ Badges and labels are everywhere! I've got a new one from #AppDeveloperCon @linuxfoundation.org! buff.ly/4foM3p7 🍿 BTW, you can watch the replay here: buff.ly/3AJGcMX
- I've been working on securing the software supply chain of @microcksio.bsky.social and am excited to see the results on #artifacthub 🎉 All images now have signed, verified, official, and @cncf.io badges 🙌 You can also register as a production user! Check it out: buff.ly/41syYry
- Snow ❄️ from my window!
- #KubeCon is over and it's back to normal life! 😥 It was fun sharing the stage of #CloudNative #AppDeveloperCon with @danieloh30.bsky.social, meeting again with @microcksio.bsky.social maintainers and discovering gorgeous #Utah! What an awesome week! 🎉 Get slides 👇 docs.google.com/presentation...
