That¹s the holy grail I¹ve been chasing for the many years I¹ve been
involved in open source. My theory is that you need to do some early leg
work and get the project up and running and usable by people. Once you
have a user base, they start raising bugs. Then some of them start
contributing fixes to bugs. But you need to acquire users first and get
your project to a state where it¹s usable. That takes the efforts of some
early visionaries with time and passion to make it happen. And you do it
strategically. We don¹t need to reach feature parity with Android Studio
to start attracting users, but we do need to a Minimal Viable Product. I¹m
pretty sure we can get there for Neon.
