Vite 生态基金启动

Cloudflare is distributing the first $301,300 of the Vite Ecosystem Fund to 44 projects and maintainers across the Vite ecosystem. AI has made open source more valuable while triggering more maintainer burnout. Anyone can now create and submit AI-authored pull requests, increasing workload for maintainers. Maintainers now have their own agents to produce better results. AI has raised pressure to produce but also made it easy for other projects to do the same, creating a grinding cycle. Sponsorships make a huge difference and allow maintainers to dedicate more time to essential projects. The fund was distributed to dependencies, critical plugins, significant contributors, and projects advancing the ecosystem. Core maintainers are eligible for stipends of up to $4,000 per month.
