Is sandpack as a project dead/legacy?

[rubenfiszel]

Codesandbox got acquired by together.ai which have less interest to continue developing sandpack in the open. The last maintainer @danilowoz has moved to Resend. There is no response on the support for React 19, Svelte 5. Is the project legacy now? What would be the best way forward to make sure using sandpack is not a long-term dead-end

I wouldn't know this news without you saying it

I understand the question, but I would say that Sandpack is not discontinued or legacy. At CodeSandbox we still use Sandpack, and while this repo might seem quiet, I still work on the bundler that lives in codesandbox/codesandbox-client.

So all to say, we're still maintaining Sandpack and intend to continue to maintain it!

I think that we have been slow on this repo in particular. We have been mostly working on CodeSandbox itself and completely forgot about the Sandpack repo. This slipped through the cracks when Danilo left. I now made a note that we'll keep a closer eye on the Sandpack repo and keep it up to date with the contributions we make to the bundler!
