About
Hey, I'm Sindre. I have been doing open source since 2012 and I still cannot get enough of it. In 2014, I quit my office job to backpack around Southeast Asia while doing open source. I have been doing open source full-time since then, 8-12 hours a day, while living off savings.
If you or your company use any of my projects or like what I’m doing, please consider backing me so I can continue maintaining and evolving these projects and new ones.
Some of my projects include:
- Awesome - Collaborative lists on many different topics (200k+ stars and 6th most starred repo on GitHub)
- AVA - JavaScript test runner
- XO - JavaScript linter
- Chalk - Colorize terminal output in Node.js (3rd most depended upon npm package)
- Gifski - Convert videos to high-quality GIFs on your Mac
- Got - High-quality HTTP request client for Node.js
- np - A better way to publish npm packages and updates
- electron-store - Simple data persistence for your Electron app
- ky - Tiny and elegant HTTP client based on the browser Fetch API
Thank you for your support! 🙌
