Project is "deadish" - again? #673

Open Vectrex opened 3 years ago

Vectrex commented 3 years ago

To quote @picturepan2 from the discussions we had in June/July 2020:

Here is my plan:

Update basic things like devDependencies and small fixes. Review more Pull requests. Move forward to a new version.

I still have to do full time work which I am in charge of product, design and dev in a startup.

I can absolutely understand, that people run out of time and have to abandon projects - but why not accept one (or more) other maintainers? Does it need another fork and the following name-calling to see some "action" again?

salamwaddah commented 3 years ago

shame it's not maintained. i love spectre and use it on my blog.

eorus commented 3 years ago

Love Spectre and it has to be maintained by the open source community. I would like to help if needed.

jalcine commented 3 years ago

Yeah, at this rate, I'm open to pushing up some of my changes to a forked version (worked on adding dark-mode support and leaning on CSS variables for more customization)

qgustavor commented 3 years ago

About working on a fork I checked some forks and seems all forks are also dead too. The fork I found that most changed Spectre was Spectre Dark. If forking is the solution I hope someone find a good way to manage it. I use Spectre in some of my projects, so I hope I can help implementing something.

Vectrex commented 3 years ago

Maybe @lu4p who did a fork in July 2020 and took it down after the dispute with @picturepan2 is willing to re-establish it.

Vectrex commented 3 years ago

Prodded him. @lu4p is not interested in forking any more.

jalcine commented 3 years ago

What dispute? Do you mind linking?

Vectrex commented 3 years ago

The closed issues #633 and #634 tell the story pretty much.

inliquid commented 3 years ago

I think it's time for a good new fork.

cMurschall commented 3 years ago

It's such a sad story. This framework used to be so awesome and slick. But I can totally understand that interests change and motivations fade out. No regrets, to hard feelings. I'm grateful for the past. I don't expect any progress in this framework and don't use it in current projects anymore.

laurentpayot commented 3 years ago

I’m still using it in my current project because even if I had to fix myself a few bugs Spectre is still the best bang for the byte of all the many CSS frameworks I’ve tried. Apart from the little unfixed bugs, what makes it outdated or unusable?

zjelo commented 3 years ago

Can some one please recommend spectree css like framework which is not dead?

Thank...

p-baum commented 2 years ago

@laurentpayot please fork and add your bug fixes. You are the chosen one.

laurentpayot commented 2 years ago

@p-baum haha well here are all my bug fixes:

I wont fork Spectre because I’m not a CSS guy and because I replaced it with Beercss :beer: for the following reasons:

I did not want to promote another CSS framework in this thread but considering the actually deadish state of Spectre I am just mentioning Beercss as a possible Spectre replacement.

salamwaddah commented 2 years ago

so anyone is up for the fork?
