GitLab Transcend Hackathon: What developers built on GitLab Orbit

GitLab Orbit, a live, queryable graph of code, merge requests, pipelines, deployments, and ownership, was provided to thousands of developers, resulting in a hackathon where participants created innovative solutions to common production problems. With Orbit, developers can efficiently address issues like change impact analysis, test relevance, and migration costs by querying a single source of truth rather than navigating multiple tools. The hackathon showcased 265 projects built on GitLab Orbit, demonstrating its ability to transform complex, scattered processes into streamlined queries, with standout projects such as Sankofa's Radar and Shield, CrossCut, Carver, and Transcend highlighting the platform's potential. Contributions also improved Orbit itself, with developers adding language support, fixing bugs, and enhancing documentation. The community's creative use of Orbit underscored its capability to provide context-aware orchestration, emphasizing the importance of understanding integrated system dynamics beyond individual code segments.
