Open source maintainers do the work that makes our awesome apps, websites, and projects possible! Many authors devote countless hours to open source. Let's help out authors and make the software we rely on healthier at the same time!

[Vote for us on Product Hunt](https://www.producthunt.com/posts/thanks) ❤️

## Usage

It's easy!

1. Run `npx thanks` in your project

2. See which of your dependencies are seeking donations! 💸

## Install

Run it instantly (without installing!) using:

```js

npx thanks

```

Or, install it, then run it:

```js

npm install -g thanks

thanks

```
