As the developer and primary creator behind NeoShade AI, I take immense pride in the work I’ve built. While I welcome collaboration and transparency, I’ve made the decision not to share all my code publicly at this time. Here’s why:
With a small but meaningful 20% investment in this project, I need to ensure its success by maintaining a competitive advantage. Sharing the entire codebase prematurely could allow others to replicate, modify, or outpace the work I’ve done, jeopardizing the very foundation of what makes this project unique.
The journey to developing reliable and secure code is ongoing. Sharing the codebase before I’ve established rock-solid reliability and mitigated potential security vulnerabilities could expose the project to risks that might harm its reputation or usability.
While I’m not sharing all the code now, this doesn’t mean I won’t in the future. Open-sourcing parts of the project is something I may consider once I’m confident that:
With others invested in the project, I have a responsibility to protect not just my work but their trust as well. Prematurely sharing the code could dilute the value of the investment and impact the project’s long-term potential.
I believe in the power of open collaboration and transparency, and I value the community that thrives on shared innovation. In the future, I may open parts of the project that can benefit the broader ecosystem, but only when I can ensure that doing so won’t compromise security, reliability, or competitiveness.
If you’d like to discuss this further or explore ways to contribute, feel free to contact me.
