I'd be interested in trying Kite for JavaScript when it's ready. Most of my company's code base is open source and we do a lot of open source work so Kite could be a nice fit one day. Trying out Kite on our actual code base for a week would be a real litmus test for me.
We're comfortable with sending our closed-source code to GitHub and our secrets to Google Cloud and AWS so I can see a path towards being more comfortable with uploading code to Kite as well. Some guarantees around privacy and the ability to delete our code and derived data could help assuage concerns.
In the meantime, perhaps you could highlight that the code uploading is opt-in on a per-file or per-directory basis (though one issue with this is that our open-sourcing system allows for private subdirectories within public parent directories and we'd want finer control)? I'd feel good about having clarity around what's uploaded and what's kept local.
In any case this seems really cool for open-source projects to start with. I'd definitely give the JavaScript version a try. And do you think you could add a VS Code extension?
