Your plans?
Hello Tech Fry team,
I recently came across your Joomla extensions in JED, and they seem to have a lot of potential. I have not tested them yet. To me, your website seems to have a lot of quality content. However, I can't find any introduction about your team or business, or plans regarding the website and extensions. This disturbs me a little bit because your extensions are all free. Why? Are you just creating extensions to help the Joomla community, and if you do this for free, what are the chances that you have time to do this in the future and support the users with updates, etc? I notice that your website has a lot of ads, but I suppose that cannot be a valid business model at this point in time. Are you planning to offer paid extensions in the future or paid support?
My point is, I feel that since I have no clue who is doing these extensions and what is the plan for the future, I can't rely on them on production websites. It would be a pain to have a website online and just notice later that I have to find a new extension because the one I use is lacking support.
It would be great to have some kind of an "About us" page where you share who you are and why are you doing this, where you are and what are your plans for the future.
Thanks a lot for helpful articles!

Hello
Thank you for the your feedback. About us, documentation and some other pages are undergoing changes, so they are offline for a while.
You are correct that advertisements are not valid business model now. It was few years back. We are developing websites with Joomla CMS since 12 years (year 2009). We earn through ads, website development, and also have premium account membership.
In future, we are planning to have some extra features on the extensions as paid versions. But, most of the things will remain free. Currently, we are working on making extensions work with Joomla 4 as well.
