Why should we make our development tool open-source?

Four years ago, we embarked on a journey to create something for developers, by developers.

As CEO, I contemplate the pros and cons of going open source.

I would appreciate your honest feedback on what would work best for you regarding:

  • usage
  • testing
  • consideration
  • maintenance
  • payment

Thank you!
