Ask HN: Best practices for starting and structuring an Open Source project?
I'm considering starting an open source project. Initially this would be a set of language specific modules (python and javascript) incorporated into ML/AI pipelines to improve observability.
- How much time should I spend structuring the project and building tooling to make development easier, vs just diving in and building the project?
- What are the most important areas to focus on make sure its as useful as possible (documentation, license, community, other areas I haven't considered?
