Are you intending to sell this, or make it open source. If the former, good luck with that! If the later, why wait?

- fao_ 7y agoIt's going to be free software, yeah. I think it's nice to have something to work towards, and it allows myself to be messy with the project or start over without having any ties. At the same time, I do generally believe that software should at some point be Finished (aside from compatibilty updates and maybe one or two ease of life features), so I have the aim of crushing all or most of the bugs I encounter before releasing to the public, even though the public release is technically 0.0 :) I guess a fun way of saying it would be, software is an artisanal craft so out of respect for what I'm building and for the users, I don't really want them to see something that is obviously imperfect, until I've smoothed those over. The less fun way is that I don't want the responsibility of someone running it in production, then for things to go belly-up, haha
- sq_ 7y agoPlease make a Show HN post or something similar when you feel your work is ready to share; I have a feeling that there are a ton of us around here who would be super interested in checking it out!
