Plans on maintaining the library

Open ddenev opened this issue 5 years ago • 10 comments

Dear @taye ,

I would like to ask you about your plans (short to mid-term) re maintaining the library - mainly the issue tracker and the docs.

This is not a criticism, just a sincere request since I need to decide if I should commit to InteractJS with my project.

I understand that you might be busy with other work but I would appreciate your honest take on how often you commit to replying to issues/questions in the issue tracker as well as do you plan to update/fix the documentation.

Currently I am still evaluating InteractJS as well as @shopify/draggable. So far it seems that the draggable team is responding faster, I still don't know if draggable covers everything that InteractJS has.

Thank you in advance and best regards!

My comment in https://github.com/taye/interact.js/issues/819#issuecomment-637781526 explains how I'd like the development of library to continue.

I'd also like to add that:

  • I don't think asking for donations would work very well for a project with such a small scope
  • I'd like to avoid consulting as a primary funding source because I don't find it very interesting and I want to try improving features, docs, and dev tooling as a solution to people's issues
  • I'm having fun and learning a lot by building out a commercial product/service :D

Thank you, @taye - fair enough :)

The Pro version ideas look very interesting and the direction looks promising. Are there any details already on the timeline and the pricing?

bumping to scare away the stale bot :)

Thanks :sweat_smile:. I'll add the issue to the roadmap so stalebot doesn't touch it.

I'm occupied with some stuff so it'll probably take me a week or two to address issues that aren't bug reports.

Hi @taye

Almost 2 years later, how is the Pro version going? Any time soon?

ddenev avatar Jun 10 '22 11:06 ddenev

Very soon. You can create an account on https://interactjs.io/account and sign up to the newsletter. I just have a lot of documentation to write.

The activation process is broken. When I follow the link in the email to activate my account, I get this error on your page:

The token is missing from this URL.

but there is a token in the link: https://interactjs.io/account/activate/?token=b74cccf8-d874-56f1-45c8-8c9fc3213b0a

Also, the "Resend activation mail" button in my account does not work either, clicking it just does nothing.

Can you fix those issues, please?
