Conversation
The Sponsors profile now promises that sponsors are thanked by name on the web book's acknowledgments page and in the README, so both places have to exist. The README section and the page avoid numbers that go stale (contributor counts, tier prices) and link to the live pages instead, so changing a tier only needs the Sponsors dashboard. The sponsor link sits in the existing "Project" box of the book's sidebar rather than in the footer, where it is easier to see. Part of #190 Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

What
doc/ACKNOWLEDGMENTS.md, in the Appendix) with the contributors and the sponsors, and a "Sponsor this project" link under the existing "Star the repository" link in the sidebarWhy
The Sponsors profile, goal and tiers were updated (item 2 of #190) and now promise that sponsors are thanked by name on the book's acknowledgments page and, depending on the tier, in the README. This pull request adds those places.
The text avoids numbers that go stale (contributor counts, tier prices) and links to the live pages instead, so a tier can change in the Sponsors dashboard without touching the repository. The sidebar is used instead of the footer that #190 suggested, since the "Project" box already exists there and is easier to see.
#190 stays open for the in-kind sponsors (JetBrains open source license).
