Looking for contributors

Updates

Feb 2022

The previous message still holds true. This lib is still being actively maintained, even though it doesn’t seem like there’s much activity at times.

The plan for this year is to:

• Add support for React 18
• Update the dev deps to latest for all repos (things move fast, so there were quite a few changes)
• Fix styleguide issues in all repos
• Use File System Access API to open the file picker instead of triggering click on an <input type="file"> (note that this is a draft, so only supported in some browsers)
• Standardise how the accept attr works (File System Access API doesn’t support file extensions, but the <input> does)
• Address the issues which seem to be causing the biggest headaches
• Revamp the docs for react-dropzone
• Revamp the logo?
• Add docs site for file-selector and attr-accept
• Improve community health (add issue/PR templates, code of conduct, funding, etc)
• Improve organisation page
• Work on the OpenCollective plans and try to get more backers/sponsors
• Find at least 1 collaborator that can help with PR reviews and other chores
• Others (community suggestions, etc)

With that said, I’m still looking for contributors that can help with PR reviews and chores every now and then. So if you’re interested, please email me or head over to https://github.com/react-dropzone/react-dropzone/discussions/1136.

NOTE Any further updates will be posted in discussions instead of here.

This issue/message is by no means reason for concern, the lib is still being maintained. The issue/message is here to encourage more ppl. to contribute and help with arising issues.

There is no need to add more comments to this topic, instead, if you feel like something needs to be fixed or changed, feel free to make a PR.

Original Message

I’ve been maintaining this repository for quite some time already and I’d like to slowly step down as the main maintainer. I could remain on board for discussions and code reviews, though.

The reason for that is that I try to spend more time with my 👨‍👦 and OSS work takes quite some time of it. OpenCollective campaign doesn’t show any interest in this project from people who use this software so I decided to give up on this project and concentrate on other projects like 🚫💩 lint-staged.

If you’re interested in helping out, please step out and let me know.

I believe we’ll need to get in touch with the members there. Over the past year this has grown from 800 stars to over 3000 stars today - this very well needs to be a community project now.

Dear maintainers, could you please raise a request to transfer the repo to https://github.com/reactjs org - I am trying to help consolidate the react projects which are really popular into the community organisation.
