👋 Hi, I am Niels from Berlin!
I am the author and maintainer of JSON for Modern C++, a header-only library to make JSON a first-class datatype for C++11. I started to work on it in 2013 during a university project when I needed to generate some JSON output. At the same time, I learned "modern" C++ an decided to experiment with the new language features with the JSON library. Over the time, more and more people shared the need for a simple way to use JSON in C++ which made the library one of the most popular C++ projects on GitHub (if you count ⭐s).
Some other projects of mine you may like:
Crow, a Sentry client for C++
fifo_map - a FIFO-ordered associative container for C++
mutate_cpp - a naive mutation framework for C++
I work on the project in my free time beside my 🏢 day job and my 👨👩👦 lovely family. I would appreciate if you would sponsor me. It shows my contributions to open source are meaningful.
Thanks!
