CI/CD, private repositories, providing hosting. These are the options used by similar companies.
But I like that they’re focussing on creating something useful before chasing revenue. Once they’ve got a single tool that provides a consistent dev experience for Python developers and it’s widely adopted they should be able to pursue monetisation easily.
I think that's a bit optimistic; that's the path every VC-funded tooling company tries to take, and it often doesn't end well; restrictive licenses, hostile forks, early deaths, etc. You need to have some kind of plan ahead of time.
