How the money is used

The ESLint project uses donated money to benefit the project and the ESLint community as a whole. In general, we spend money on these areas each month.

Team Development

We pay our team members an hourly rate based on their seniority, currently 80 USD/hour for TSC members and Reviewers and undefined USD/hour for committers. Team members are paid for a maximum of undefined hours per month.

Contributor Pool

We set aside 10% of our monthly income to pay outside contributors who have made significant contributions to the project. Contributions include submitting code, writing documentation, answering questions in our Discord server, and more. This money is allocated each month by the TSC.

Dependencies

We set aside 5% of our monthly income to help support our dependencies. We believe that open source projects who are lucky enough to get funded have a responsibility to help support the smaller projects they rely on.

Community Projects

We set aside 5% of our monthly income to help support plugins, parsers, and other projects that are of benefit to the ESLint ecosystem as a whole. We believe the strength of the project is in its ecosystem and we want to ensure important projects remain well-maintained.

Support Systems

We use a small amount each month to pay for software the team uses to help manage the project, which includes things like Google Workspace and cloud storage.

Additionally, from time to time we use the funds to pay contractors to work on things that are important to the project and where the team doesn’t have the time or expertise to complete the work on their own. For example, we recently hired a designer and developer to redesign this website. We ensure that we spend less than we take in each month so we can save for such projects.

ESLint has been critical in helping developers write high-quality JavaScript for years. We love that it catches common issues early and often. With a high level of extensibility, ESLint's ability to let teams enforce custom rules that work for them has been excellent for open-source projects and more. Chrome is happy to sponsor ESLint to help web developers write consistently high-quality code. It's an essential piece of the modern web development toolkit.

Addy Osmani Senior Staff Eng. Manager, Chrome

Nx uses ESLint to enforce code quality, library boundaries, and project visibility constraints. ESLint makes Nx more powerful, so on behalf of the Nx.dev community, we're proud to do our part and sponsor ESLint's continued success!

Jeff Cross Co-founder and Principal Architect, Nx

ESLint is an extremely useful tool for any JavaScript project. This tool allows us to set up consistent code formatting rules adopted by the whole team from the beginning of the project, greatly facilitates code reviews, and makes it easy to integrate new developers into the team. I know I am not alone in appreciating its flexibility and ease-of-use.

Médédé Raymond KPATCHAA Technical Architect, Salesforce

Most JavaScript projects directly or transitively depend on ESLint. An Indeed employee nominated ESLint to receive a donation from the FOSS Contributor Fund, and their colleagues clearly agreed. We're happy to support the open source technologies that allow us to develop, protect, and maintain the digital infrastructure that supports our products and helps people get jobs.

Duane O'Brien Head of Open Source, Indeed

ESLint plays a major role in helping us create a safe and consistent experience across a growing number of codebases and engineers. We are grateful for all the open-source projects that are helping us build Contra, and ESLint is the first of many open-source projects that we are committed to back.

Gajus Kuizinas Co-Founder / CTO, Contra
