Could someone explain what Gatsby's path is to eventually making a lot of money? I'm always a bit wary of open source frameworks that claim to be all about their community getting funded with lots of venture capital.


This is it: https://www.gatsbyjs.com/

SaaS for deploying and running Gatsby sites, with add-ons, competitive with Netlify and Vercel.

As more companies use Gatsby, they (and the VCs) are making a bet that some meaningful percentage of them are willing to pay money if it means reducing their development or maintenance burdens.


It seems crazy to go with them when you can move further up the food chain to someone like netlify and host your gatsby site with a lot of value-add


Provide gatsby services and tooling for enterprise customers, something along the lines of the wordpress ecosystem?

Seems like they're going the way of meteor though, so who knows.
