Why Sponsor?

While Starlette and Uvicorn are part of the Encode organization, they have been primarily maintained by Marcelo Trylesinski (Kludex) for the past several years. His dedication and consistent work have been instrumental in keeping these projects robust, secure, and up-to-date.

This sponsorship page was created to give the community an opportunity to support Marcelo's continued efforts in maintaining and improving both projects. Your sponsorship directly enables him to dedicate more time and resources to maintaining and improving these essential tools:

  • Active Development: Developing new features, enhancing existing ones, and keeping both projects aligned with the latest developments in the Python and ASGI ecosystems. 💻
  • Community Support: Providing better support, addressing user issues, and cultivating a welcoming environment for contributors. 🤝
  • Long-Term Stability: Ensuring the long-term viability of both projects through strategic planning and addressing technical debt. 🌳
  • Bug Fixes & Maintenance: Providing prompt attention to bug reports and general maintenance to keep the projects reliable. 🔨
  • Security: Ensuring robust security practices, conducting regular security audits, and promptly addressing vulnerabilities to protect millions of production deployments. 🔒
  • Documentation: Creating comprehensive guides, tutorials, and examples to help users of all skill levels. 📖

Community & Future Plans 🌟

We want to express our deepest gratitude to all the contributors who have helped shape Starlette and Uvicorn over the years. These projects wouldn't be what they are today without the incredible work of every single contributor.

Special thanks to some of our most impactful contributors:

  • Tom Christie (@tomchristie) - The original creator of Starlette and Uvicorn.
  • Adrian Garcia Badaracco (@adriangb) - Major contributor to Starlette.

While the current sponsorship program directly supports Marcelo's maintenance work, we are exploring ways to distribute funding to other key contributors in the future. This initiative is still in early planning stages, as we want to ensure a fair and sustainable model that recognizes the valuable contributions of our community members.
