Bevy's creator, project lead, and now president of the Bevy Foundation here. Feel free to ask me anything!

Nothing to ask right now, just -- thank for your (and Alice's) work!

The (non-game) things that I do would be infinitely more painful without Bevy ECS, so I sponsored personally at Diamond for now.

Very excited for relations and I'm hoping that the Bevy Foundation can attract the support it's looking for (and I'll switch over to corporate in a few months if things don't go unexpectedly sideways with my company). :)

How does it feel to have a small project where you are the only programmer turn into such an organization which asks very different things from you?

It has certainly been a wild ride. Running an organization is certainly a different skill set. I've learned that I'm pretty good at that side too, but it drains me in a way that programming does not. Bevy's success has definitely been a mixed bag for me. It has been extremely fulfilling and a dream come true. But things were also much simpler, calmer, and pleasant when I was building Bevy alone incognito.
