We’ve received a lot of great feedback on HN, which we used to set the direction of our project. So it’s only natural that we want to show HN what we used your input for. Please give it a try and let us know how it went. Read more about the new release in our blog post.[1]
As a recap, FerretDB is an open source alternative to MongoDB. We started building it because we believe that there should be an OSS alternative to MongoDB, as they changed over to the proprietary and controversial SSPL license [2]. We built it on Postgres, because we believe that Postgres as a backend is more than capable of playing the part. FerretDB is written in Go; it also can be used as a Go library.
We started adding support for SQLite as well, as there is a lot of interest in it.
Our long-term goal is to create an open standard for document databases, similarly to how SQL is a standard for interfacing with RDBMS.

Seems that both of you use the same MongoDB compatibility code under the hood.
The MongoDB compatibility code under the hood is FerretDB.
