Hoping instead that we can find the right small team size that lets us do more of this in a first-party way, and selectively support the tools we find people ask for the most.
Could definitely see a world where we work with experts in different technologies to port our stuff over and maintain it under some sort of retainer agreement though, just don't see us ever giving up any of the actual UI design or initial implementation work.
I bought into it because as a designer I got interested in SaaS, and my impression was/is that you have a perspective on design edgecases that most traditional or semantic html devs lack because they're more focused on content sites and blogs.
Keep up the work, but don't forget smaller frameworks. Your last suggestion with the retainer agreement sounds good!
One of the reasons I bought Tailwind UI is _because_ Adam & Steve knew what they were doing, had good attention to detail and because I'd already purchased Refactoring UI. I'd worry that with a marketplace the quality would drop, no matter how much guidance you give.
So happy that we just bought a team license for Tailwind UI.
Too many marketplaces exist where there is no value-add instead of sitting in the middle.
It could help with the creation of interactive components for all ecosystems, like those that are tightly coupled to a specific ecosystem considering that it's not only frontend frameworks, but also backend frameworks that have their own LiveView version or way to do components now (e.g. Elixir Phoenix has Surface which is like writing backend React components, Rails has view components).
Supporting all those combination yourself seems daunting, and it would suck to see components for React or LiveWire/Alpine, but not other ecosystems that aren't covered by the skillset of your team.
