Java and PHP support - upcoming beta

It’s been a busy few months for Oicana — here’s what’s new.

We’ve added two new integrations to the lineup: Java and PHP. Together with the existing browser, C#, Node.js, Rust, and Python integrations, Oicana now covers most of the major server-side ecosystems. Check out the getting started documentation to try it out.

Just like the other integrations, the two new ones come with open source example applications. A small Spring Boot Java application and a php service using Slim demonstrate backend services that can generate PDFs from templates and data with Oicana.

The docs have been migrated from Typst to MDX and included in this website. While we love Typst and still plan to eventually use it for the website and the online documentation, there were too many small issues in making the documentation look good in a responsive website. The Typst version of the documentation will at some point power the online documentation again.

Oicana is approaching beta. For the moment, no new integrations are planned, to focus on improving what we already have. The non commercial license will stay and pricing for commercial licenses is work in progress. More details on that soon — stay tuned.
