For the last 3-4 Months i have been working on an open source project of mine called Stack UI - https://stackui.co It's a freeform open UI library and the version 1.5 is already released. I am working on version 2.0 that will have following things: 1. React JS and Vue JS Components 2. Templates 3. UI Blocks 4. Stylesheets and Script Manager 5. Video Tutorials However looking for sponsors and users who will join the beta testing of version 2.0 So any tips on how I can get the sponsors, I am looking to raise around $1200 USD to get it running. Any tips and suggestions from Community will be appreciated, also, I plan to launch Stack UI on Product hunt so it will be great if get some launch tips. PS. You can check version 1.5 from link given above!

Hi Kaustubh! There are different ways you can do this. There is an initiative by the ChenZuckerburg foundation that awards to open source projects. There is also, mozilla foundation, GithHub Accelerator, and some more programs out there that can provide you with funding. The requirements would differ from each grant so I would suggest you look them up and find the best one for you.
