More Hearts than Stars: Smart Charging & Community Funding
Michael Geers

I'm one of the core team members of evcc, an open-source EV charging system that runs on and works with the hardware you already own. Over the last 5 years, we've managed to grow evcc into a sustainable and community-funded project using GitHub Sponsors.
