Become a sponsor to Feross Aboukhadijeh

Full disclosure: I recently started a new company, Socket, and will have little to no time for maintaining existing projects or starting new ones for the foreseeable future. Companies: please continue sponsoring for logo placement or marketing purposes on the WebTorrent or StandardJS website. Individuals: I recommend you shift your funding to other worthy maintainers.

👋 Hey there, I'm Feross! ✨

I'm an open source author, maintainer, and mad scientist. I'm the author of 100+ open source packages which are downloaded 100+ million times per month. 🤯 All my code is freely accessible on GitHub. ❤️

I've built innovative projects like WebTorrent, a streaming torrent client for the web, WebTorrent Desktop, a slick torrent app for Mac/Windows/Linux, and StandardJS, a JavaScript style guide, linter, and automatic code fixer. I've also built fun projects like BitMidi, a free MIDI database.

I wrote several popular browserify/webpack ecosystem packages like buffer (82M downloads/month) and safe-buffer (161M downloads/month). Some of my favorite npm packages that I've written are simple-peer (91K downloads/month), render-media (12K downloads/month), and simple-get (10M downloads/month).

In the past, I was on the Node.js Board of Directors, representing individual Node.js users like you! I was happy to play some small part in making things better for everyone. Just for fun, a couple years ago I helped organize ArcticJS, an impromptu JavaScript conference in Svalbard, the northern-most human settlement on Earth, with some amazing friends.

I feel that open source funding should primarily come from companies and not individuals. Companies can sponsor to receive their logo placement on the WebTorrent or StanfordJS website.
