Support
If this saved you an afternoon.
The applications are not open source yet, and I would rather be straightforward about that than ask for donations as though they were. What support does is make the open part arrive sooner.
GitHub Sponsors
Recurring, from developers, beside the code. No platform fee - GitHub covers it.
Not set up yetNone of these is live yet — the accounts are being set up. Nothing here takes money today.
What it pays for
Three things, in this order.
- Building the test equipment the applications already specify — the in-circuit tester a coverage analysis plans, and the functional tester a test plan describes
- Fabricating the boards. Every board on the hardware page is designed and gated and in the pipeline, because a run costs real money before it earns any
- A code-signing certificate, so an install stops being met by a SmartScreen warning
What it does not buy
Influence over what gets built.
Supporting the work does not buy a place in the queue, a private build or a feature. If you need something specific enough to pay for, that is a quote and a statement of work, not a donation — and it is a conversation I am glad to have.
