I discovered another way of getting contributors with Umbrella JS [1] (500+ stars), using up-for-grabs [2][3]. In total I'd say it's similar or even a bit more of effort per issue, however many people contribute and sometimes they step up and continue with more things. Not sure how useful it is for projects that are more monolithic though, I was lucky with this one as Umbrella JS has many small modular parts.

An anecdote [1] about "No is temporary, Yes is forever": 4 months ago: However, please read the notes in Roadmap and new features before continuing with this work, as I'm not yet sure whether or not they are within the scope of Umbrella [...] 4 months ago: I don't think it's a good idea to change it, so only Strings will be available for after, before, etc. 3 months ago: I opened it to implement what was suggested here. 3 months ago: Okay, it was added.
