Huge thanks to @natemoo.re, @philippeserhal.com, and @nickgraynews.bsky.social, who recently started sponsoring my open-source work! I’ve spent most of the last 5 years working on OSS, and this support means a lot. It's not an easy path, but this trust helps me keep going long-term.
sponsored both @dreyfus11.bsky.social and @yanthomas.dev tonight—two humans who i greatly admire! thanks for all you do for the communities you're involved in and for inspiring me to keep building in the open. 💜
Happy to be part of this project and to once again join forces with @sarah11918.rainsberger.ca to cook up great documentation for everyone!
Biome invests where it matters. @sarah11918.rainsberger.ca and @yanthomas.dev will join to improve our docs! biomejs.dev/blog/collabo...

Heard that Snowflake laid off its entire tech writing team. I can only say this: passo.uno/reconsider/

I just wrote this article about the Prefetch's differences between Astro and Next.js on my blog site. It's quite interesting😌 saku-space.com/blog/astro-n...

Companies invest millions in their product but treat docs as an afterthought. I disagree, it must be a core concern. I wrote a deep dive into what it takes to write docs loved by millions, the value it delivers, and my experience in Astro Docs. yanthomas.dev/articles/doc...

My book, Accessibility For Everyone, is now free and online as a website. accessibilityforeveryone.site The book was first published by A Book Apart in 2017 but it holds up! It covers web accessibility for designers, developers, content folks, and really everyone who works in tech.

There are some great people, @yanthomas.dev included, looking for their next adventure! Oh hey, and me included, too! I'm not in a rush, but keeping my eye out for the right opportunity in docs or community leadership. If you've liked using or contributing to Astro, maybe part of that came from me!
The part of the team that worked full-time under The Astro Technology company did join Cloudflare -- and we are all happy for them! But, the overall Astro team is bigger: some of us worked as contractors or voluntarily, and currently depend on the very hard-to-get OSS sponsorships.
If you want to support Astro, one of the best ways is to hire the people behind it. There are amazing people on the core team looking for work right now—like me! You get a talented engineer on your team, and give them the sustainability to keep improving Astro for everyone.
We all know funding open source can be hard. Let’s talk about how Astro is doing it in 2026! (And how you can help 👀)
