I fixed my writing above—I meant to refer to our web apps, like Guesstimate/Metaforecast/Squiggle Hub.
I think that smaller libraries like Squiggle itself make more sense to both open-source and try to document and the like!
Similarly, I think Metaculus is likely too big for many people to get use of as a whole (in terms of the code base), but there are certain subparts that might be used. I’d naively expect these subparts to not be isolated/packaged well, unless extra work is done to open-source them specifically.
Having QURI’s code in open source forms explicitly helped me improve Squiggle’s Observable integration & then develop my own smaller subset of Squiggle, so even though I didn’t fork & deploy your code it was super helpful for debugging & adapting!
Good to know, thanks!
