Open Source Work

There’s many aspects of the ecosystem surrounding open-source software that I think are problematic.

But the core principle behind open-source: the idea of making source code publicly available for other people to read, learn from, use and improve, is something that I love!

Here are some of my own open-source projects and contributions I’ve made through the years:

Projects

• My Dotfiles ‐ collection of scripts and configuration files I use for my daily programming work.
• Instafeed.js ‐ A simple Instagram JavaScript plugin for your website.
• Metalsmith-Sass ‐ Sass plugin for Metalsmith.
• RNCryptor-Go ‐ Go implementation of Rob Napier's RNCryptor encryption format.
• Inkplate ‐ My (no-longer used) headless blogging engine that emulates the Wordpress API.
• Honukai Blink Theme ‐ adapation of the Honukai iTerm Theme for Blink.
