☕ Another fun morning hack: @openapis.org Webhooks are now supported in @microcks.io

Simulate event-driven apps, real-time notifications - all built on simple HTTP, straight from your spec. 🎯

Next-level realism = better testing, faster development, happier teams. Love it 😍

📢 I’m incredibly happy and proud of this announcement; it brings me back to how it all began almost 2 years ago, when I joined and connected with the #GSMA and CAMARA communities at MWC Barcelona 2024! 🙌

#GSMA #opensource @cncf.io @linuxfoundation.org 🚀
🚀 Big news for the Telco & API ecosystem: GSMA is now a public Microcks adopter.

GSMA has selected Microcks to power the GSMA Open Gateway API Sandbox, which exposes standardized, programmable mobile network capabilities via the CAMARA APIs.

📢 From 850k to 2.5M+ downloads in a year. That’s 3× growth for Microcks container images in 2025 🚀

It shows how fast teams are adopting:
- contract-driven APIs
- smart & realistic mocking
- shift-left and developers' early stage conformance testing
