About

unified is an ecosystem for dealing with content as structured data. It consists of 500+ packages to do a wide variety of things. It’s used in 1m+ projects but a well-known example built on these packages is MDX. Maintaining all those projects takes a lot of time, which is why we’re on OpenCollective!

for more about us, see unifiedjs.com
for how the collective is governed, see unifiedjs/collective
for updates, see @unifiedjs on Twitter

We need your support…

to pay out core maintainers for project leadership
to finance non-coding work, such as proper technical writing
to get our remote team to get together in real life
to do fun things for the community like getting stickers for contributors

As a backer or sponsor, you’ll be helping unified’s maintainers manage and improve existing projects, and additionally, you’ll support our work to develop new and exciting projects, such as micromark.
