I wrote a JavaScript compiler / low code framework that can build single page apps pretty quickly in what I believe to be a unique way. I know it has some uses in the real world, but I am unsure how to monetize it or show it off in a way that can land me a better paying job in the future.<p>It has it's pro's and con's like most frameworks. It's not designed to be the fastest, but allows people to build internal like apps/ forms quickly with very readable code. I'm looking for advice on possible next steps I can take to create the best possible outcome without being taken advantage of. (I have heard tons of stories about open source maintainers driven to burnout because of the demands of the masses).<p>If anyone has advice I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks.
I think popular adoption driving the maintainer to the point of burnout is the exception.
I run deckofcardsapi.com. It’s been fairly popular and I’ve never felt like the load has been more than a few hit issues that I can happily ignore. It’s also been a great bullet point in my resume, but that’s about it. But I’m just one data point.
Docs, demos, samples, and videos.<p>Focus on that and see what happens.<p>Research low-code as well. Are you targeting developers or non-coders? There is a world of difference in how it goes based on that<p>You'd get better feedback if you share a link / GitHub repo
