think about this for a second: your competitor is asking to copy your work.
If I were you, I wouldn't assume good intentions especially considering you are just a start up and in a race for marketshare.
If it were up to me, I would set a date a year or two in the future and then open source it then, but only AFTER you have a large enough lead against your competitors in the market.
There is no reason that I can see to open source the secret sauce of your entire product.
- gfodor 7y agowe're not competing with Figma (though we are happy customers), and we already open source everything we do, we're Mozilla.

- Me1000 7y agoEven if they were a competitor, it's still something worth sharing. I wish more companies shared technology that made software more secure. We're kinda of all in this together. Security shouldn't be a feature or a competitive advantage, it should be a standard practice that all developers follow and participate in. Everyone benefits when software is more secure.
