Nevertheless it gives some insight about if people have interest in what you do or not. It also goes together with feedback and exchanges that we collect from users.

Manifest started as an internal project in our digital agency to become an open source product helping developers to build their backends.

I am happy to share our progress today, it is really enjoyable to see a friendly community blossom and see what others are building on top of our product.

I am also surprised by the kindness of people in the open source community: we met many incredibly caring people that helped us and told us tips, their own challenges and their way of thinking.

As of today Manifest (https://github.com/mnfst/manifest) is still in its early days but we would love to see it grow. 1k stars is meaningless, as any number of stars if it doesn't fulfill your objectives. However it gives us strength to continue and think "yeah, there's people out there who care, or are at least curious about what we're doing right now".

Work is never over :)
