developers. It started as a <ahref="https://github.com/kamranahmedse/developer-roadmap"target="_blank"rel="nofollow"class="sc-crHmcD gJMBjK">set of charts to guide the developers</a>
more contributors involved.</p><h2class="sc-dkPtRN sc-hKwDye dKUOdJ kqfgwy">What are the plans for roadmap.sh?</h2><pclass="sc-bdvvtL kiIUjN">The website started off as
a <ahref="https://github.com/kamranahmedse/developer-roadmap"target="_blank"rel="nofollow"class="sc-crHmcD gJMBjK">simple repository containing a few charts</a> for developers and
based on my personal opinions but it could have been much more than that so I decided to expand it to a website where
people can contribute to study plans with their areas of expertise as well, add more roadmaps, write guides etc.</p><pclass="sc-bdvvtL kiIUjN">We haven't opened up the sign ups for now but we will be doing. My long term plans for this website are to turn it into
a goto place for the developers to seek guidance about their careers, help others, share their journeys, incentivize the
learnings, get feedbacks on their projects etc.</p><h2class="sc-dkPtRN sc-hKwDye dKUOdJ kqfgwy">How did you build roadmap.sh?</h2><pclass="sc-bdvvtL kiIUjN">The basic version of the website has been built with <ahref="https://github.com/zeit/next.js/"target="_blank"rel="nofollow"class="sc-crHmcD gJMBjK">Next.js</a>, is opensource and can
be found on <ahref="https://github.com/kamranahmedse/developer-roadmap"target="_blank"rel="nofollow"class="sc-crHmcD gJMBjK">github</a>. It was hastily done to get it out in front of the
people and get people to start contributing, so it might be rough on the edges, but that is where we need your help.</p><h2class="sc-dkPtRN sc-hKwDye dKUOdJ kqfgwy">How does it make money?</h2><pclass="sc-bdvvtL kiIUjN">It doesn't make any money. I have been using my personal time and budget to build it. I did not create this website with
any intentions of monetization but as a good will, to help the people get out of the frustration that I was once in.</p><pclass="sc-bdvvtL kiIUjN">Having said that, I love teaching and my future plans are to be able to work full-time on roadmap.sh for which it has to
make enough money to pay for my rent, groceries, bills, travel expenses, etc but even if it doesn't it's likely I'll
continue growing the site however I can. My focus at the moment is not making money from it and just add content that
creates value for the people.</p><blockquoteclass="sc-pVTFL cuyQdk"><pclass="sc-bdvvtL kiIUjN">Sponsor the efforts by <ahref="https://github.com/sponsors/kamranahmedse"target="_blank"rel="nofollow"class="sc-crHmcD gJMBjK">paying as little as 5$ per month</a> or with <ahref="https://paypal.me/kamranahmedse"target="_blank"rel="nofollow"class="sc-crHmcD gJMBjK">one time payment via paypal</a>.
