Suggestion - Funding LiveStyle #77

Open RaphaelDDL opened 11 years ago

RaphaelDDL commented 11 years ago

First, awesome work Sergey! LiveStyle is already awesome and has much opening to get even better.

I've read the infos and posts you made and it will be a paid tool when it gets out of beta. Also you said that if the community likes and you get support, you would search a way for SASS (scss) to work.

I'd like to suggest making a Kickstarter or IndieGogo project, I'm sure people would fund your project. And you could do extra milestones for things, like sass (less, stylus, and other weird preprocessors), and why not .HTML changes also?

I would totally support it.

Best Regards, Raphael

Thank you for support!

The crowdfunding is pretty serious step for me: I don’t want to just take the money and release something completely unusable on real projects. First, I have to research the ways how it might work. The biggest challenge is to map CSS changes back to SCSS: in some cases, there might be more than one possible mappings (for example, if SCSS value contains variable or expression). So there might be some sort of UI.

Anyway, I’ll do a research on this and tell the world how it can be implemented.

I mean that a funding would not only help with research for sass but also for live html, creation of other browser's plugin and so on~ But I understand that a previous research if that is possible and usable is needed before actually doing the fund project.

Anyways, I really hope you get lots of money for all your hard work, because your tools are awesome and help us all alot! =D And I think other people think that as well.
