- acemarke 4y agoI wouldn't say that at all. The React Core team was 100% Meta up until earlier this year, when Seb Markbage switched to Vercel (and I believe Vercel is now also funding an additional full-time dev to contribute more React SSR / Server Components implementation). React Native work is also primarily Meta, although I think MS has a team that supports RN for Win/Mac. There are certainly _contributions_ from the community, but in terms of core library vision and implementation work, it's all been the primary team (Seb, Andrew Clark, Dan Abramov, et al). Dan recently commented and said that they'd certainly _like_ more actual outside contributors, but there's a big onboarding cliff that requires a lot of time investment: - https://twitter.com/dan_abramov/status/1585423173860102146 https://twitter.com/dan_abramov/status/1585423173860102146 - https://twitter.com/dan_abramov/status/1585430299948638208 https://twitter.com/dan_abramov/status/1585430299948638208 - https://twitter.com/dan_abramov/status/1585431334373052416 https://twitter.com/dan_abramov/status/1585431334373052416 - https://twitter.com/dan_abramov/status/1585432699468058624 https://twitter.com/dan_abramov/status/1585432699468058624
