I have been waiting exactly for something like this. I suggest that you open source it and spend time building a ecosystem and develop a business to build custom requirements from enterprises. But open source the core product so that a ecosystem can build around it. On the other hand if you want to commercialize it completely then please don't license it on a per project basis but have a one time fee. Your target customers will be tinkerers and developers who has to build fast and fail fast. Dont restrict them on a per project license method. Thanks!

Hi all, author of Wasp here!<p>My brother and I have spent about a year working on Wasp as a side project, and have just finalized a prototype that is not fully featured but should give a good idea of what it is all about.<p>Since there is still a lot of work to be done to make Wasp usable in the real world, we hoped to get some feedback, good or bad, to guide our future efforts! So please let us know, do you think it makes sense, what would you like to see in it, how do you see it progressing.<p>Thanks a lot!

What is Wasp implemented in? It has the feel of a Racket project for some reason and I&#x27;m curious if my intuition is right. But either way, curious to know how this was made.<p>Pretty cool

TLDR: Looks cool, are other databases on the roadmap?<p>Looks neat, I’d be quite interested in trying it, especial since I’ve got libraries of react components available to use to make up for current limitations, but other databases are a mandatory feature for me. With things like severless aurora on AWS giving me a DB with next to zero hassle from $1, I’m not interested in mucking with MongoDB.<p>I use MongoDB for my day job, I know what I’m doing, and nothing about it makes me want to run it for my own personal learning&#x2F;prototyping, MongoDB just has too steep of a step function from “toy” to “production ready” for me. It’s become a decent enough Database with recent releases but it’s still just more work to run it for my own “non-work” use than I want to do in order to try anything.<p>I think the only thing I’ve tolerated it for in my home lab is GrayLog2, and that wasn’t so bad since they shipped an appliance with it all done for me.
