The whole “why I contribute to open source” has been on my mind lately after I published my first open source project and it’s gotten moderate attention from the data engineering community (200 GitHub stars):

TinyETL - Fast, zero-config ETL in a single binary https://github.com/alrpal/TinyETL

The transition from being the sole architect of “my” project into more of a maintainer, organizer, director, has been a unique experience and interesting to reflect on.

What’s the future hold? I really don’t know.

Wow, really impressive, there's a lot of stuff going on in such a small package, great work!
