Become a Hanami, Dry and Rom patron

[NewsBot]

A new Hanami blog post/announcement has been posted!

Dear #rubyfriends — today we announce the beginning of a new era for Hanami, Dry and Rom. We are establishing paid, ongoing maintenance for the very first time.

I’m very proud of what we’ve built over our last decade of nights and weekends: an entire ecosystem of impressive breadth: from standalone libraries in Dry, to a powerful persistence toolkit in Rom, all the way to Hanami, the batteries-included framework experience that ties it all together.

Now it’s time to take our work to the next level, to prepare our ecosystem for the next decade and beyond. We need your help to make it happen. We need you and your businesses to become patrons of Hanami, Dry and Rom.

We’re aiming to raise USD $70k/year, ongoing. At $40k, this will enable 1 day/week of maintenance work from me, plus establish a small reserve for community and promotional activities. At $70k, this will enable another day/week from my core teammate Sean Collins.

With this funding, we can:

• Continue to make improvements, fixes and releases of all gems, including renewed attention on Dry and Rom.
• Improve the Hanami developer experience. Better CLI, more helpful errors, easier testing approaches, even a language server.
• Write new learning material and documentation.
• Create a new Hanami community hub to bring users together from across the whole ecosystem, and better support new contributors to our projects.

As of today, we’re already on the way!
