GitHub Sponsors Profile

Hi! My name is Michele (here's how it's pronounced 😉), and I'm committed to a lot of open source projects.
The most notable ones that I authored (and keep maintaining) are:

Punic - a PHP localization library (more than 40,000 downloads/month)
IP-Lib - a PHP library to work with IP addresses (more than 10,000 downloads/month)
the Windows binary distribution of GNU iconv and gettext tools
PhpManager - a PowerShell module to manage PHP installations on Windows
docker-php-extension-installer - a bash (well, actually a standard POSIX) shell script to install PHP extensions in docker containers
the concrete5 plugin for Eclipse PDT
many other projects on GitHub, MIT licensed.

Furthermore, I'm the first community contributor to Imagine (400,000+ downloads/month) and the concrete CMS (which empowers many websites).
As you can see, there isn't a single big project I'm working on; nevertheless, it's very likely that (directly or indirectly) you use some libraries I wrote.
So, if you want to help me to justify to my wife the time I spend on open source projects, what about offering me a coffee?
