What does the technical term "community-driven" mean in javascript?

generally speaking, the Internet likes to say that a framework or technology is "community-driven". What I want to ask is that "community-driven" means open source on github. Can everyone participate in development and maintenance? Is it specifically different from react, a framework or technology that belongs to a company?

this is related to the development of javascript in recent years, and the community driver can be said to be a feature of js (not that communities in other languages are not good).

many languages are official first-release specifications, and update their own version of the language and related development environment, and then come out documents or even books for developers to learn, such as python, java, c. It can be said that this is a very normal path of language development, but the development of js has accidentally gone wrong. Js is usually what developers need a new feature, will achieve this function, and then promote for everyone to use, many bosses think good, easy to use, and then will recommendation , these features include not only the js language (officially EMCA, the organization behind the js standard ECMAScript), but also a small amount of browser environment related (W3C organization). It may be implemented by some preprocessors before it is officially adopted, such as Babel or traceur . Many features may be used by developers for several years before they can be officially written into the standard. Another interesting thing here is that ECMA is only responsible for setting standards, not for implementation, even if the final implementation is Google or other companies, in essence, it comes from the community.

finally, on React, I would like to add that React is designed and implemented entirely by Facebook and is open source based on the MIT protocol. Its community's contribution to React itself is very limited, and it is more about some peripheral tools and optimizations, such as UI libraries, state management, code generation, and so on.

in addition, there are a lot of community drivers. I just mentioned js, such as Linux, php, and so on. If you are interested, you can find out for yourself.


this is not exclusive to javascript, is it
