Hello everyone! We're three friends passionate about building tools that empower the open-source community. Welcome to the first entry in the OpenINF blog! Here, we'll share updates about our journey, from the inception of OpenINF to the exciting tools and projects we're developing.
OpenINF started with an idea: How can we help open-source developers aggregate, curate, disseminate, and apply information more effectively? As we explored this question, we realized the tools we envisioned weren't readily available, so we created them ourselves.
Our flagship project, the INF Development Kit (IDK), is a JavaScript toolkit inspired by the modular and extensible principles of Brendan Eich's ideas for JavaScript. It's designed to make building and expanding open-source projects more straightforward and enjoyable.
We're in the early stages of development, crafting the foundational components of IDK and laying the groundwork for future projects. Like any ambitious project, OpenINF has its challenges — we're balancing development with our day jobs and managing everything on a shoestring budget. But we're passionate about this project's potential to make a difference in the open-source world.
We're eager to share our progress with you and the community. Your feedback will be invaluable as we refine our tools and ensure they're as impactful as possible. Over the coming weeks, we'll post updates about our development process, challenges, and the milestones we're working toward.
This blog, like OpenINF itself, is a work in progress. You might notice the occasional rough edge — code that needs updating or half-finished pages — but that's all part of the journey. We appreciate your patience and support as we continue to build.
Thank you for joining us on this adventure. We're excited to see what we can create together! Stay tuned for more updates, and feel free to reach out — we'd love to hear from you.
