Hi there! My name is Jacob Alzén and I am a Computer Science and Engineering student from Sweden. I have multiple years of experience in various programming languages such as Python, Java, Go, and C++ to name a few. My knowledge of operating systems includes Linux, FreeBSD, macOS and Windows.
Join me in my efforts for building reliable and secure open-source software that everyone can enjoy. Your contribution will help pave the way for me spending more time on my projects and keeping the infrastructure running. Most importantly, it will allow for me to distribute signed binaries to app stores on both desktop and mobile.
