Tips before open-sourcing a project?

I'm getting ready to open source a 2+ year project (a calendar app). I'm trying to make things attractive for potential contributors, so I'm:

  • creating a docs site and cleaning up the code.
  • letting devs in the niche know via direct outreach
  • considering doing a quick & minimal launch on Product Hunt

Anything else I could be doing to increase the odds of devs finding and using the code? What else should I be considering beforehand?
