Perguntas comuns
Why pay if free skills exist on GitHub?
Time and quality. If you've got an hour to evaluate three open-source skills and pick the best one, GitHub is free and great. If you'd rather pay $14 and have a tested kit in four formats with updates, Lumenari is the buy.
Are GitHub skills always lower quality?
No — some are excellent. The variance is the issue. Lumenari's promise is that every kit is at or above the bar of the best open-source skills.
Can I see what's inside a kit before buying?
Yes — every kit page lists the deliverables and a 'what's inside' summary. No surprises.
