First, thanks for looking to sponsor my work!
My name is Sven, the human behind „Arctic Ice Studio”.
I'm a passionate open source developer & designer and the creator of „Nord“ — An arctic, north-bluish color palette.
I started to explore the fascinating world of bits & bytes back in 2004 and since then I enjoy every minute working on open source projects and being part of this fantastic community.
My main focus is to develop, maintain and enhance Nord, currently consisting of more than 35 repositories with over one million downloads spread across many platforms, as well as building applications and sites with Go and React like snowsaw and the official Nord website and documentations.
Nord was born as a small color palette, designed to fill the gap for a palette that matches my preferences and tastes, and has grown into a really large and broadly used project with more than 3000 🌟 stars on GitHub. Today you can choose from a broad and constantly growing spectrum of port projects to unify the appearance of your favorite applications.
It was published to give something back to the great open source community and has built its own Nord community around itself.
Maintaining Nord now requires a lot of work and energy, but its amazing to see all these great contributions from the community making it better day-by-day. In the future, Nord's official project blog will be populated with news, insides, documentations and road maps to interact even more with community. I've a future plan and a lot of ideas to bring Nord to more platforms and to make the project more open and easy to enjoy and contribute to.
Building polished open source projects takes a large amount of time and effort and is often difficult to combine with a full-time developer job and the daily „real-life” tasks. Although open source has became a great part of my day, it's not the most important part and everyone should ensure to keep the work/life balance to prevent a burnout.
I would love the opportunity to shift more time for Nord with all of its port projects as well as open source libraries, applications and tools written in Go and JavaScript (TypeScript) with React.
My goal with GitHub Sponsors is to spend more time maintaining all my projects, continue developing new projects and actively contribute back to the awesome open source community.
Your sponsorship will support the development and health of your favorite projects to continue being maintained. It will help to cover costs for project domains, hosting, automation and technical equipment.
Becoming a sponsor confirms that my work really matters to you and is an excellent way to give back to the projects you're using every day.
As I do all of this in my free time, it is important to keep the work/life balance in order to prevent a burnout and a sponsorship helps to spend time for „off-screen” activities with my family and friends.
Finally I'd like to thank you in advance for supporting me, whether through contributions, feedback or a sponsorship.
