Good question!

IMO a good way to help a FOSS maintainer is to actually use the software (esp pre-release) and report bugs instead of working around them. Besides helping the project quality, I’d find it very heart-warming to receive feedback from users; it means people out there are actually not only using the software but care enough for it to take their time, report bugs and test patches.

I’d personally appreciate if you explained the intention behind asking these questions.

Is this for your personal market-awareness? Or is it part of a survey (community or corporate?)

I had so many typos - typed that on my phone 🤦‍♂️ Glad I was able to communicate in some way 😂

Nice work 👏 I can easily see the usecase even without a giant monorepo: a typical MVC app (eg Django or RoR or Grails) which serves both the backend and frontend can easily see the benefit from this.

TIL indeed!
