I started Flurl (short for Fluent URL) in early 2014 with the humble goal of providing the .NET world with a better, more structured way of building URLs. Flurl.Http soon followed, and it slowly started gaining traction. It really exploded in popularity in 2018, thanks in no small part to a blog post by the great Scott Hanselman.
I've written about 99% of the code, all of its documentation, and I've spent hundred of hours over the past 10 years responding to issues and answering Flurl-related questions on Stack Overflow.
In "celebration" of several milestones (10-year anniversary, 50 million downloads, and a huge 4.0 release), I've finally decided to put out a tip jar if anyone feels inclined to show their appreciation. To be clear, this is a labor of love. I get joy out of building this library, and if you get joy out of using it, I consider us even. I'm specifically not looking to profit off of fellow open source developers or hobbyists.
But if you or your for-profit company are getting real, tangible productivity gains and developer happiness from my work, I won't turn down any sort of contribution. I expect most of it will go toward funding my caffeine addiction that fuels my continued work on this project.
Thanks in advance!
Todd
