Hey all, please check out this post to get more insight into how development is going and what we’re working on:
Please note specifically paragraph two onward
With
@auggod’s
departure, this leaves the remaining volunteer@maintainers
with a dev stack they cannot successfully and completely build locally (making it nearly impossible to fix things when they break, or to implement new features), in particular the ID server written in Golang. A number of the current live assets exhibit technical debt, meaning they use libraries and packages that are no longer well-supported, making it an uphill battle to maintain and build upon. Also, the transition off of WordPress is not quite complete.Additionally, the co-op is currently low on funds and can’t afford to hire a developer to contribute full time.
As a result, the current tech stack and setup should be seen as a success as an initial prototype, a proof of concept, which will tide us over until we can eventually create a Minimum Viable Product for Resonate. Expect our current infrastructure to be in flux for the time being while we build out new solutions that are easier to get running and contribute to as volunteer developers, and lack the technical debt that our current prototype exhibits.
I know it’s bummer news but we want to be up front that it’s possible we won’t be able to fix this any time soon. We’ll post here and in the above thread as we learn and know more, and develop new solutions.
