GitHub Sponsors Profile

My standard bio blurb says:

Sean Corfield used to build compilers, virtual machines, databases and telecom systems but eventually got a real job building web applications. After eight years of ANSI C++ Standardization and a decade of web development with JVM-based languages, he finally found his first love again -- functional programming -- and for the last decade, he has written Clojure almost every day.

I have been involved with open source development since the early '90s but it has always had to be squeezed in around my day job. Since I started working with Clojure a decade ago, I've become the maintainer of a number of fairly widely-used Clojure libraries, primarily in the database area (next.jdbc, honeysql, and org.clojure/java.jdbc -- and, for a while, congomongo) but also in the tooling and testing areas (deps-new, build-clj, clj-new, expectations and previously depstar and boot-new). In addition, I maintain the following Clojure Contrib libraries: core.cache, core.memoize, java.data, and tools.cli.
Although I've been fortunate to have support from my current employer in allowing time to work on a few of these projects as part of my job, I really want to carve out time to work on documentation and "version 2.0" of some of the other projects I maintain, which is where sponsorship can help, since I would be able to dedicate focused time to those projects beyond what I can currently fit in around a full-time job. Thank you.
