GitHub Sponsors Profile

I'm an open source author, maintainer, and mad scientist. I maintain 100+ open source packages which are downloaded countless of times per month 🤯It's quite mind-blowing! All my code is freely accessible on GitHub. ❤️
I help and maintain several popular javascript packages like FormData pollyfill which made it all the way into Wordpress core. Node-Fetch that implements the fetch api for NodeJS. StreamSaver.js that got 200 stars in just the first week it was publish without much advertisement, it helps you save large amount of data generated on the client side directly on to the hard drive with lite RAM usage asynchronous. Before that i helped out a lot with FileSaver and i still do. Have also helped out feross with webtorrent stuff and optimized a lot of things everywhere here and there.
My goal with GitHub Sponsors is to spend more time maintaining the 100s of projects that I've written over the years and continue developing new projects. I feel that open source funding should primarily come from companies and not individuals (though if you're an individual who supports me, you're awesome and I'm very grateful).
