It is time this project to have more than one administrator/owner

If you are interested, please let me know and we'll find a way to discuss this.

Hi @selfrefactor I would like to help you to maintain this library!

Thanks for your application, but I'd prefer to be someone from the big contributors to this library, so I will wait before making a decision as it is not urgent matter.

Ok, no problem. Thanks

@selfrefactor before looking for more contributers, you should fix some aspects of the project first.

A few examples:

  • Why the package.json refers to a folder (rambda-scripts) which is not versioned in the repo?
  • Why lots of files are repeated between src and source folders?
    • What's the difference between src and source?
  • Why a CONTRIBUTING.md is missing?

We heavily use rambda in production for both front-end and back-end projects, I would be more than happy to help here.

All valid points @ilteoood so I will answer them in details once I have time, but now I am on vacation. I will write on 4th of June.

Hi @ilteoood Sorry for the delay; these are the answers:

Why the package.json refers to a folder (rambda-scripts) which is not versioned in the repo?
  • Initially, everything was part of this repo, but one contributor pointed that this is not ideal, as folder structure as well as git history includes files not related to the library. This is when the other repo was created. Why lots of files are repeated between src and source folders?
  • Another contributor pointed that it is bad that Rambdax and Rambda share similar files. Manual sync was prone to errors, so that is why src and source folders exists. Folder source includes all files and tests of Rambdax and Rambda, while src is created using build script and it includes only Rambda related files. The advantage is that src doesn't include any test files. Why a CONTRIBUTING.md is missing?
  • There was such file, but it became outdated. I created issue to fix this - https://github.com/selfrefactor/rambda/issues/735
