A Node.js CLI tool that scans your project's dependencies and lists which open source maintainers accept donations. Run via `npx thanks` to discover who to financially support.
Use cases
- find which npm dependencies accept donations
- give back to open source maintainers I depend on
- check if my project's dependencies need funding
- discover patreon links for packages I use
- support open source sustainability
When to choose
- you want a quick, zero-install way to see which of your npm dependencies seek donations
- you want to financially support the maintainers behind your project's dependency tree
When to avoid
- you need automated funding distribution or GitHub Sponsors integration
- your project is not Node.js/npm-based
- you need actively developed tooling with new features
