Hi there! 👋
I'm Jose, JavaScript developer by day, C and C++ developer by night.
I've worked on Free/Libre and Open Source Software for more than 10 years 🐧.
Multi-touch
I'm the author of Touchégg.
I released the first version back in 2011 and a lot has changed in the Linux world since then.
Recently I released version 2, a full rewrite of the previous version incorporating all of those changes to provide you the best possible experience using your touchpad and touchscreen on any Linux distribution.
In addition, I created two companion projects:
Touché, the official desktop application for configuring your gestures
And X11Gestures, a GNOME Shell extension to enable multi-touch gestures on X11
elementary OS
I'm a member of the elementary OS team.
If you have ever used multi-touch gestures on elementary OS, I'm the developer who implemented them:

libinput
At this point, you may have noticed that I care a lot about input on Linux, that's why I co-maintain libinput.
libinput is the library that Touchégg uses under the hood but, most importantly, it is the library every Linux distro out there uses to handle your mouse, touchpad, touchscreen and every other input device.
Among other things, I implemented hold gestures and, in order to support you gaming mouse a bit better, high-resolution scroll wheel.
Linux Kernel
Kernel development can be challenging, that's why I'm working really hard to improve on this area.
You can follow my progress on my fork of the kernel.
And more!
I have contributed to many other open source projects like Mutter, Gtk or wlroots but most importantly, your sponsorship will help my cat to keep improving her coding skills 🐱💻
