Open Source¶
FaderDock is built with a strong DIY and maker mindset.
Philosophy¶
The goal is not to create a black box. The project should be understandable, reproducible, and adaptable.
That means documentation, hardware notes, and software details should be shared in a way that helps others learn from the project and build on it.
What open source means here¶
Depending on the project stage, open source may include parts such as:
- firmware source code
- hardware design files
- bill of materials
- documentation
- setup examples and configuration snippets
Some elements may mature over time before they are published in final form, but the overall direction is openness and transparency.
Community value¶
Open DIY projects become more useful when people can:
- inspect how things work
- suggest improvements
- report problems
- contribute fixes or refinements
- adapt the concept to their own requirements
Practical note¶
If you plan to publish code or hardware files, this page can later be extended with:
- repository links
- chosen licenses
- contribution rules
- release workflow
- attribution notes
For now, this page explains the intended spirit of the project: buildable, understandable, and shareable.
