So in collaboration with a friend I decided to build a fresh UI on top of the Sqlectron core libraries. In the end, the out of date dependencies and React-based UI was too much for me. I started playing with the SQLectron core libraries in a new Vue electron project to sort of figure out how everything should fit together. Honestly I was totally unable to solve even simple problems. I wanted to write you all with an apology and a reason for why I haven't contributed much to this GUI.īack in 2019 when I tried to get involved in Sqlectron I totally underestimated the learning curve of Electron, Electron Builder, and React. For future maintainer(s): Maybe you could use Open Collective platform for covering part of your expenses? That guy is true Open Source Hero if you ask me. I've never felt a bit of annoyance in his replies, no matter how dull my question was. Speaking on my behalf, he was very patient teacher and OSS maintainer. Max helped me, and many others, to get started with Open Source, and technologies there were new to us. ![]() I know people will mostly see the value in the app they use ( Sqlectron), but there's additional value to that. I think the same was with Max, it was learn-new-technology-make-something-useful kind of project, if I'm not wrong :) Backend part should be good, Max got that covered well.Īll in all, what was supposed to be learn&fun project turned into something really useful and that's true beauty of open source. Max is world class engineer, but I think lot of contributions to GUI repo were from people (including myself) that were getting started with React couple of years ago. ![]() I'd just like to point out to future maintainer, that UI code may use some good refactoring. I completely understand you've lost interest maintaining something that you don't use. ![]() Max, thanks again for all the help and advices you gave to us, contributors.
