3M+ downloads, the hottest post on r/webdev, the 5th most popular JS repo on GitHub ๐ ๐ ๐
See original GitHub issueThe previous part of SweetAlert2โs success story: #906
Last weekend the new major release of SweetAlert2 was shipped ๐ and I decided to post about it on r/webdev: https://www.reddit.com/r/webdev/comments/aiobj0/sweetalert2_a_beautiful_responsive_highly/
The post ended up being the hottest in r/webdev and that brought a lot of new eyes on the project:

I wanted to thank @zenflow who took the most significant part in making the fundamental OO changes to the package. We had some disagreements about the release, but in the end, I extremely grateful to him and I call him โSweetAlert2 architectโ in public discussions. Heโs truly the most skillful person I was co-working with in OSS.
Also, we recently got the new collaborator @gverni and he showed himself as the extremely fast-learner and his contributions to the new release were significant. Canโt thank you enough @gverni for your participation in discussions, being pro-active in the package development and being kind and supportive to people on GitHub and StackOverflow.
I sent to both of you @zenflow and @gverni PayPal donations, feel good about yourself, you guys rock!
We are getting closer to 10k stars on GitHub, 5M npm downloads and being TOP 20 jsdelivr package. Currently we are here:
Great job everyone! ๐ป ๐ป ๐ป
I wish a pleasant day to everybody who is creating or using SweetAlert2 in production. We care about avoiding any breaking changes, so developers can feel safe when running yarn upgrade sweetalert2
