(Saasify Founder) Thanks for the feedback! It's really, really important for us at this stage of things. > I am also unsure how is this related to OSS, except for using it as a marketing gimmick to draw "customers". Definitely not a gimmick. 80% of all revenue goes directly back to the OSS authors that wrote the underlying open source project. Given that we're giving back the majority of the money to OSS, I'm not sure how this would qualify as a gimmick. As an open source author myself, this is the most important part of the platform by far. I realize that the current version doesn't do a great job of making this point clear, but we're actively working on improving this messaging. > I would have expected something more declarative. We're working towards this, but product development is a process and the current version is definitely a stepping off point. Right now, all you have to do is write a 100% normal TypeScript function without dealing with HTTP, encoding, parameter validation, etc, which is pretty simple compared with what it would take to traditionally create SaaS APIs. > It's funny how people have different interpretation of general availability: "this product is in beta and ready for general use" Anyone can signup and create their own SaaS products, and the service has already been tested by a few hundred developers. Would love to hear how we can improve on our beta's messaging here :) --- We're working on rolling out more example saasified OSS projects over the coming weeks, but here's one that's available today: https://github.com/saasify-sh/saasify/tree/master/examples/typescript/natural https://github.com/saasify-sh/saasify/tree/master/examples/t.... It provides a simple, hosted, SaaS version of this OSS project https://github.com/NaturalNode/natural https://github.com/NaturalNode/natural with 80% of any revenue going directly back to the project's OSS maintainers. -- Travis Fischer
