fastify
New maintainer
Is there anyone who would feel to take over the maintainership and direction of this module? It seems @galvez is unavailable.

If no one shows up, I think we should deprecate these given #297.
I want to do it but I'm really busy at work now to handle most things. My company is using this module in production so it's important that it keeps working.
That said, I still believe @galvez will return after his parental leave.
I think no one in the organization has the time or skills to maintain it.
I have great respect for Galvez’s work, from our past discussions, he seems both skilled and genuinely nice person. The initiative was promising and gained good traction (+1k stars), but in practice I was never able to use it reliably. The documentation, particularly for the React plugin, has been outdated for months if not years, and TypeScript is not well supported at all despite years of existence.
The fact that the website is down for weeks with no answer is a final red flag that this project is not doing well at all.
Unless someone steps up in the next days to bring seriously the project back on track, I am in favor of deprecating it rather then hurting the reputation of Fastify org.

Maybe your company should fund someone to maintain it, or take ownership.
Home boy is on parental leave as @onlywei said, I don't think we should rush to drop this.
I think it was more than 2 months ago @onlywei?
I had a third kid the 13 September, I did not disappear. Hope he is fine btw, and nothing else happened. The issue is more that he has the responsibility of this project and not sure we are able to help him.
Maybe my comment was a bit rude, Idk, just give my honest feeling about the issue.

@jean-michelet I don't use the react plugin at all. I use spa mode exclusively. Lately I've started to use this Tanstack Start as well so I made this: https://github.com/onlywei/fastify-tanstack-start
Created #307 to have atleast some tests running. And well, the typescript ones fail. Atleast we should get the CI work. ANd then we can actually ask contributors to provide PRs with tests...
@onlywei Can you help out with the failing typescript examples/tests, please?

Not right now. I'm under a lot of pressure at work. I'll try and get to it once this period is over if someone hasn't gotten to it already.
