Let's Code: Test-Driven Javascript kickstarter ends today with over $36K - AMA
My "Let's Code: Test-Driven Javascript" kickstarter [1] announced on HN three weeks ago [2] is wrapping up today. It's been far more successful than I anticipated, with over 800 backers and over $36K in pledges. I thought HN might be interested in my experiences, so I'll be answering questions in this thread.

- hlangeveld 14y agoHow familiar were you with KS? I can see you backed a recent project yourself. When did KS come on the radar for you?
- jdlshore 14y agoI play D&D and occasionally read Order of the Stick, so I first started paying attention when Rich Burlew had his record-breaking Kickstarter [1]. Rich's professionalism and good management of the process was an inspiration for how I've been approaching mine. It's actually been pretty interesting to follow along with his updates, even though I didn't back his project. I'd heard about it before then and a friend of mine had also conducted a Kickstarter [2] but up to that point I had never looked at an actual project.
