Hi, I'm Ben, and I write code. The good news is that a lot of that code is Open Source, and I'd like to keep it that way.
I've created many Open Source projects over the years, covering a variety of domains, for end-users and other developers alike. Everything from:

Type-safe Lua IDEs through to mobile phone firmware flashing software.
Software to manage deployment of services across multiple cloud environments through to texture decompression libraries.
CLI tools that automate GPU driver installation through to libraries that help you make digital board games.
Web servers for handling submission and automated responses of web forms via email through to libraries that make computer peripherals with lights flash.
React libraries for rendering Markdown through to automated Humble Bundle Steam key redemption[1].
Libraries for reading QR codes through to an extension for a dependency of a dependency of a tool I’m using to generate documentation for some software I’m writing.

Phew!
I like writing code. I work from home (Melbourne, Australia) with my supportive wife and three amazing daughters, who I absolutely adore. The latter of which are too young to understand that I do anything other than sit in my office, push buttons, and make lights flash.
[1] I keep buying computer games thinking I'll play them. I don't. I just write more code.
