Ever wondered what it's like to maintain open source projects full-time?
In this talk, I'll share my journey from hobbyist to full-time open source maintainer, offering insight into the challenges and rewards of turning passion projects into a career.
Join me as I walk you through my journey, motivation, challenges, and tips for:
- Building a community around your open source project
- Increasing visibility and attracting contributors
- Navigating social media and livestreaming to grow your audience
And more! Along the way, I'll share insights from other maintainers, highlighting what works and what doesn't.
Blood, sweat, and code — it's all here, for the love of open source!
