GitHub Sponsors Profile
While my programs may not make your job easier, I can promise they will make your life more creative and more convenient. I'm a scientist by training, but my work on Github is reflective of my true passions and hobbies: hacking tangible solutions to real-life problems.
I have over 100+ repositories that I currently maintain. Many of these are file-sharing tools like croc (>20k stars) or Go-based libraries like progressbar (~3k stars) and peerdiscovery (~500 stars) or web-based tools like rwtxt (~1k stars) and cowyo (~1k stars) or other more creative pursuits like ingredient parsing, simplifying audio streaming, and a cli tool to find people around you, plus many more.
In addition to the above, music is my side jam, and I regularly do creative coding and of course, share everything I do in the music space, too. Check out my Instagram @infinitedigits. I also share in-depth tutorials on my website and spend a lot of time developing music projects in SuperCollider for the norns musical device. I have written and rewritten dozens of scripts, like oooooo, mx.samples, mx.synths, and o-o-o.
The brutal truth is that these tools require constant support, like assistance with PRs and Issues nearly every day, and it's honestly very time-consuming to address everyone's inquiries. In the end, everything I do becomes open-source and benefits all. If you believe in this approach and you like or use my work, please sponsor me.
