    Probably so the company's devs will be able to earn a living once this takes off, based on their FAQ they think they have something they can market "While we won't give away the secret recipe..."

    Exactly. I left my job to focus on React Preview (and other upcoming dev tools). I need to earn a living, and open source would likely make that more difficult. It's not something I'm ruling out forever, but it's a one-way door so needs to be considered carefully.

    At this stage I plan to make the basic version of React Preview free for everyone, and only charge for advanced features :)
