## Why Sponsor?
23+
24+
While Starlette and Uvicorn are part of the [Encode](https://github.com/encode) organization,
25+
they have been primarily maintained by [**Marcelo Trylesinski (Kludex)**](https://github.com/Kludex)
26+
for the past several years. His dedication and consistent work have been instrumental in keeping
27+
these projects robust, secure, and up-to-date.
28+
29+
This sponsorship page was created to give the community an opportunity to support Marcelo's continued
30+
efforts in maintaining and improving both projects. Your sponsorship directly enables him to
31+
dedicate more time and resources to maintaining and improving these essential tools:
32+
33+
- [x] **Active Development:** Developing new features, enhancing existing ones, and
34+
keeping both projects aligned with the latest developments in the Python and ASGI ecosystems. 💻
35+
- [x] **Community Support:** Providing better support, addressing user issues,
36+
and cultivating a welcoming environment for contributors. 🤝
37+
- [x] **Long-Term Stability:** Ensuring the long-term viability of both projects through strategic
38+
planning and addressing technical debt. 🌳
39+
- [x] **Bug Fixes & Maintenance:** Providing prompt attention to bug reports and
40+
general maintenance to keep the projects reliable. 🔨
41+
- [x] **Security:** Ensuring robust security practices, conducting regular security audits, and
42+
promptly addressing vulnerabilities to protect millions of production deployments. 🔒
43+
- [x] **Documentation:** Creating comprehensive guides, tutorials, and examples to help users of all skill levels. 📖
44+
45+
## How Sponsorship Works
46+
47+
We currently manage sponsorships *exclusively* through **GitHub Sponsors**. This platform integrates seamlessly with the GitHub ecosystem, making it easy for organizations to contribute.

## Community & Future Plans 🌟
164+
165+
We want to express our deepest gratitude to all the contributors who have helped shape Starlette and
166+
Uvicorn over the years. These projects wouldn't be what they are today without the incredible work of
167+
every single contributor.
168+
169+
Special thanks to some of our most impactful contributors:
170+
171+
- **Tom Christie** ([@tomchristie](https://github.com/tomchristie)) - The original creator of Starlette and Uvicorn.
172+
- **Adrian Garcia Badaracco** ([@adriangb](https://github.com/adriangb)) - Major contributor to Starlette.
173+
- **Thomas Grainger** ([@graingert](https://github.com/graingert)) - Major contributor to AnyIO, and significant contributions to Starlette and Uvicorn.

You can view all contributors on GitHub:
179+
[Starlette Contributors](https://github.com/encode/starlette/graphs/contributors) / [Uvicorn Contributors](https://github.com/encode/uvicorn/graphs/contributors).
180+
181+
While the current sponsorship program directly supports Marcelo's maintenance work, we are exploring ways
182+
to distribute funding to other key contributors in the future. This initiative is still in early planning
183+
stages, as we want to ensure a fair and sustainable model that recognizes the valuable contributions of
184+
our community members.
