could i ask about more details on shipping this? what made you start working on it? how long did you work on it to an initial state? have you had any practical work-related side benefits of doing something like this, or is it pure hobby?
I started working on this at the Recurse Center two weeks ago.
As for practical work-related side benefits, I've neither had my open-source work weigh in on the hiring process (as everyone still asks algorithms/data structures questions) nor earned much money through it. But I love building open-source tools that would be useful for people, including me (I used `present` for a talk some days ago), so you could say it's just a hobby at this point.
