GitHub Sponsors Profile

In 2009, I invented npm and spent 12 years working on it, including founding npm, Inc. (acquired by GitHub in 2020), and designing and implementing Arborist, the library that powers npm 7 and higher.
If you use JavaScript in any capacity, there is a very good chance you depend on code I wrote.
I left GitHub in November 2021 to found another startup, and no longer work on npm full time. Currently, I am working on vlt.sh, the next generation of JavaScript package management.
Apart from that, I maintain node-tap and a whole host of Node.js utility libraries that are used by millions of JavaScripters around the world. Sponsorship helps me justify my non-work OSS time, since that takes me away from other activities, and sponsoring libraries of mine will help me judge where my OSS maintenance time is best spent.
