I'm not sure what you mean of "outside of manas" but we have a bountysource [1] which contributes to the hours of the Manas developers to work on Crystal. [1]

- kyledrake 9y agoWell if the sponsor company is having a "tough year" as you said, and that means they can no longer support full-time development of Crystal anymore, it makes sense to put together a structure so that your core team can work on it full time. In the future you're going to need more than an internet tip jar to get access to the better sources of funding you'll need, which are largely institutional. It's going to be the most depressing news ever if we're doomed to a hundred years of toilet dumpster programming languages because Crystal loses steam due to one company's tough year. Let's make sure that dark future never happens.
