🤝 What happens when someone else tries to use your work?

It does not build on machine X …

It does not work in scenario Y …

As developers, we naturally avoid the rough edges of whatever we are working on – it hurts.

When other developers try to build/run our stuff, it is amazing what they find.

The more people you have building and running your stuff, the better it will be.

Even two people vs. one makes a huge difference.

The platform approach says anyone should be able to easily check out, build, and run any code on any machine.

We’ve run this experiment with OSS projects for a long time – it works.

Encourage others to build and run your code – it will make YOUR Platform better.
