A Chinese-language practical handbook cataloging ways to earn money from open source work, translated from nayafia's 'Lemonade Stand' guide. It lists fifteen funding models—from donation buttons and bounties to dual licensing, open core, foundations, and venture capital—each with real-world examples ordered roughly by funding size.

Use cases

• how do I make money from my open source project
• ways to fund open source development
• open source monetization strategies
• should I use donations, crowdfunding, or open core for my project
• how do maintainers get paid
• funding models for indie open source developers
• examples of projects that successfully raised money

When to choose

• you maintain an open source project and want a survey of funding options
• you want real-world examples of each funding model
• you prefer reading the guide in Chinese

When to avoid

• you need up-to-date platform or service recommendations (the guide dates to 2018)
• you want a tool or service rather than a reference document
• you need legal or tax advice on funding structures
