Support open source.
Trace is free and open source. Sponsorships help sustain development and keep the project thriving for the community.
How funds are used
Development time
Sponsorships allow dedicating more time to building features, fixing bugs, and improving performance.
Infrastructure
Hosting, CI/CD pipelines, and Apple Developer Program membership for TestFlight distribution.
Testing devices
iOS devices for testing compatibility across different models and iOS versions.
Community
Supporting contributors, recognizing valuable contributions, and building a sustainable community.
Other ways to support
Not ready to sponsor financially? There are many ways to support Trace development:
- Contribute code, documentation, or translations
- Report bugs and suggest features
- Star the project on GitHub
- Share Trace with colleagues who might find it useful
- Write blog posts or tutorials about your workflows
Transparency commitment
When sponsorship is enabled, we'll publish regular updates on how funds are used—full transparency about development costs, infrastructure expenses, and community investments.
The core functionality of Trace will always remain free and open source. Sponsorships sustain development but don't gate features.
Coming soon
GitHub Sponsors will be available soon. Follow the project to be notified when sponsorship opens.
