4coder receives significant attention via the Casey Muratori's video streams like Handmade Hero, and opening it up is sure to produce some positive growth for the development/community side of the project.
The combination of popular development livestreams and FOSS tooling utilized in those livestreams seems like it could be an important part of making FOSS development more sustainable without involving big corporate sponsors.
- capableweb 4y ago> opening it up is sure to produce some positive growth for the development/community side of the project This is not a "opening up" of anything but the source code, with a permissive license. You're free to fork and change anything you want, but it won't be upstreamed ever as the author did the open sourcing because they are stopping maintenance of the project. So this is more of a "closing down" with the gift of leaving us with the source code. And for that Allen Webster, I thank you!
- scotty79 4y agoIf there's a demand in the community for further development then the project will be immediately forked and this for will become new upstream.
- capableweb 4y agoIndeed, the community could fork it, change the name and carry on development. But it would no longer be "4coder" but based on/forked from "4coder", as "4coder" would no longer receive any updates from this point on.

- alexvoda 4y agoOr 8coder? And when that gets forked, 16coder....
- vanous 4y agoForkCoder? Or ForkEd...
- iostream24 4y agoWith the wrong accent this sounds like telling a coder off…
