Too Long; Didn't Read

The first commit is just 500 lines, but in a few days, you build it up just enough to start using it in real code. You learn something new about it every day and encounter many obstacles. You publish the project on GitHub and submit the landing page to the popular open source news aggregators. But the comments are largely irrelevant to your idea. It might be that your idea is simply not as interesting for a casual visitor. It might also be that you poorly explained it. That happens as often as you didn’t get relevant feedback.
