Maintenance is currently paused for Coronate. This has almost always been a one-person passion project, and there simply isn't time to work on it these days. The version hosted here should continue to work for the indefinite future, and its code will always be open-source. Anyone may use the Coronate source code in accordance with its license.

If you have a special interest in working with Coronate that you wish to discuss, please still feel free to reach out to me or open a GitHub issue.

i'm considering to join / maintain this project. i'm into JavaScript for many years (doing old-school web-programming) but i'm not familiar with ReScript .. i guess this language is just a modern JS flavor and i can learn .. what's special about it ?

btw. upto now i'm not into GiHub actions like commits, PRs, etc. .. never done that .. so, whenever i start to adjust code for Coronate (which i might), can you help me with this ?

I'm happy to provide pointers. ReScript is a functional, statically-typed language that compiles to JavaScript. It has a similar "feel" to JS but its features are different.

As for using git/GitHub, I recommend making your own "fork" of this repository first and then downloading that. Create a git branch and make your changes in that before trying to merge them (with a pull request).

Just a word of caution, all of the code here should work but may be using old versions of packages that need to be updated for best compatibility with the latest tooling.
