Linking to the git repo for the book source, it's not immediately apparent how to begin reading.

Look like it's easier to read from there: https://un.curl.dev/

Daniel Stenberg, the lead maintainer of cURL, has some interesting tweets about this topic. In fact several of the toxic comments he posts are from people who seem to lack a basic understanding of what the project even provides.

He has an interesting guide on his thoughts on maintaining open-source as well. Here's the People section: https://github.com/bagder/uncurled/blob/main/people/

GitBook is a well-known online platform for developing, sharing, and publishing technical documentation. Although it’s not open source, it offers free and paid plans, with the free plan having limited features and functionalities. The paid plans unlock more features, such as custom domains, team collaboration, and advanced analytics.

GitBook — Platform for capturing and documenting technical knowledge — from product docs to internal knowledge bases and APIs. Free plan for individual developers.

A buddy of mine started looking at https://www.gitbook.com/

GitBook hasn't been open source since October 2018 (https://github.com/GitbookIO/gitbook) and software is usually judged by its most recent version. GitBook in its current form is a proprietary web service.

VSCodium does exclude the proprietary features of Visual Studio Code, but I don't see how that should disqualify VSCodium from being open source. In fact, I use VSCodium frequently and I am satisfied with its feature set. VSCodium is also maintained by someone who is not employed by Microsoft, so I don't think it's fair to say that it is intentionally designed to be inferior to Visual Studio Code.

GitBook is a collaborative documentation tool that allows anyone to document anything—such as products and APIs—and share knowledge through a user-friendly online platform.
