I’m worried about the psychological health of people that make stuff like this. Why? Nobody uses these frameworks unless paid, you need an actual team of people to maintain it.
I built Blazeio ([https://github.com/anonyxbiz/Blazeio]) because aiohttp let me down in production. I needed a framework I could trust to support high-concurrency web apps, and rather than just complain, I decided to build it myself. It’s not about coding pointlessly, it’s about solving real problems. I update it for me, but since others have faced similar challenges, they can benefit from it too. I designed to be efficient, scalable, and lightweight, capable of handling hundreds of thousands of requests on a single server with minimal resources. Sometimes, creating something is motivated by necessity, not just by a paycheck.
...sometimes people build things for fun, or as proofs of concept for iterative improvement on existing tools (which can then go on to inspire changes in existing and new mainline tools).
What does that have to do with (negative) mental health?
