Google Unveils Site Showcasing Google-Approved Open Source Tools and Tutorials for Google-Technology Developers (googleblog.com) 12
Quoting the Google Developers blog:
Developers around the world are constantly creating open source tools and tutorials but have a hard time getting them discovered. The content published often spanned many different sites - from GitHub to Medium. Therefore we decided to create a space where we can highlight the best projects related to Google technologies in one place - introducing the Developer Library.
The platform showcases blog posts and open source tools with easy-to-use navigation. Content is categorized by product areas; Machine Learning, Flutter, Firebase, Angular, Cloud, Android, with more to come.
What makes the Developer Library unique is that each piece featured on the site is reviewed, in detail, by a team of Google experts for accuracy and relevancy, so you know when you view the content on the site it has the stamp of approval from Google.
The "Dev Library" web site describes itself as "a showcase of what developers like you have built with Google technologies."

There's no need to use any of the Google open source products for anything other than a demo product.
The same goes for Microsoft research based products/tools until they are in production for more than 3 years (IronRuby anyone).
These companies think that 1,000,000 developers and 100,000 companies worldwide will just risk a $1,000,000 software solution on the work of 3 ms/google employees pet project which dies when each of them gets promoted/leaves the team?

Google treats developers like useful fools.
They’ll “tolerate” your open source efforts if it helps them to make more money. But expect to be backstabbed at some point, and see your users get left in the cold.
As a developer, I see Microsoft as a more reliable partner for the long term than Google.

I tried to submit my time manipulation software, but the signup process demands that submissions be of software that is licensed under the MIT or Apache-2.0 licenses. My software is licensed under GPL v3+, so is not acceptable.
I wonder why they demand a non-copyleft license. Perhaps they want the right to make improvements to the software and not re-distribute those improvements.
