T.xyz: A Project for Funding Open Source Software Developers
T.xyz is a project manager and successor to the famous open-source package manager Brew. Created by Max Howell, T.xyz aims to address the lack of compensation for open-source software developers. It allows users to install packages across various ecosystems, such as NPM and Rust, and builds a dependency tree to map out projects' dependencies in the open-source ecosystem. On top of this logical infrastructure, T.xyz develops an economic infrastructure that enables users to support their favorite open-source projects through donations or token staking. The goal is to create a system where open-source developers can be well-funded, allowing them to focus solely on their projects and quit their corporate jobs.
