GitHub Sponsors Profile
Hi there! I'm Niels and I'm a contributor to Jellyfin and maintainer of various parts in the project.
My primary work lies in the codebase for the Jellyfin Android TV app, making sure the code will be sustainable in the future and uses best-practices. I'm also active on the mobile Android app, primarily making sure everything keeps running and publishing the new versions. Both apps use the Jellyfin Kotlin SDK that I've written from scratch. This library is the foundation of all communication between the Jellyfin apps and the Jellyfin server. Occasionally you'll find me in other Jellyfin projects like the server, web interface or documentation.
Alternative: Support via Buy Me a Coffee
If you’d like to support my work in another way, you can also use Buy Me a Coffee. It offers more payment options and doesn’t require an account. Every contribution is greatly appreciated and helps me keep improving the Jellyfin apps and ecosystem. Thank you!
