How they build

Caleb Porzio avatarCaleb Porzio

  • Make open source pay by bundling education (screencasts) with sponsorship
  • Sponsorware: release to sponsors first, open source once a goal is hit
  • Keep tools simple enough to fit in your head

Tanner Linsley avatarTanner Linsley

  • Build the tools you need yourself and solve real problems rather than innovating for its own sake.
  • Keep libraries headless and framework-agnostic so they outlive any one UI framework.
  • Ship early so feedback and outside contributors can improve the project.
  • Separate your identity from your code.
  • Fund open source sustainably through sponsorships that pay maintainers.
