So, you’ve published a code library and suddenly millions of developers are using it. Now what? This talk from Mark Erikson at NDC Oslo tackles the real-world challenges of maintaining a wildly popular open-source project. It’s a deep dive into what it truly means to be a “maintainer,” which is as much about managing a community as it is about writing code.
The session covers the mindset and practical skills needed, from handling user support and designing great docs to making the tough calls on versioning and breaking changes. It’s all about the strategies for keeping your project—and its users—thriving in a constantly evolving ecosystem.
