🚀 From humble beginnings to over 1 million downloads, QField has officially gone from “little app that could” to “open-source overachiever.”

Thanks to the power of open source (and probably some caffeine).

FOSS4G 2025 Auckland recap: QField is production infrastructure now.

The pattern across deployments: QGIS Desktop → QField (offline) → QFieldCloud → Enterprise APIs

Not "can this work?" anymore. It's "how do we optimize this workflow?"
