Open source is not a strategy.
It's a conviction.
While not everything we build is open source, we are deeply committed to releasing our core primitives, libraries, and frameworks to the community.
Core Principles
The non-negotiable tenets of how we approach open source software.
Open source, intentionally licensed
Most of what we build is MIT — use it, fork it, ship it. Where it matters, like Yasumu, we use AGPL to ensure modifications stay open. Licensing is a deliberate choice, not an afterthought.
OSS as the business, not the funnel
We do not build open source as a loss leader. The tools stand on their own. Sustainability comes from what we build on top — not by quietly degrading the free version to upsell a cloud tier.
Primitives first, product second
Every product we build is a composition of smaller, independent open-source primitives. We release the building blocks first. The community can use them to build entirely different products than what we envisioned.
How to Contribute
We welcome contributions of all sizes. From fixing typos to architecting new features, here is how to get started. Significant open-source contributors often get fast-tracked through our hiring process.
$git clone https://github.com/neplextech/yasumu.gitClone the repository of your choice and ensure you are working against the main branch.
$pnpm install && pnpm run devInstall dependencies using pnpm and start the development environment to begin hacking.
$git checkout -b feature/your-ideaCreate a new branch, make your changes, run formatting, and submit a PR.
