Hey there! I'm Blaine (you may know me as @blainebublitz or phated). I'm an avid open source creator & experimenter. I've also been the lead maintainer of gulp for many years.

In my spare time these days, I'm working on the Grain programming language, building tooling in the Reason, Rust, and ZK ecosystems.

In addition to my GitHub Sponsors, some of my open source maintenance work is funded via Tidelift.

Why open source?

My entire career has been influenced by open source.

  • When I was just starting, I read all the source code I could find.
  • I built a node.js consulting company using open source and gave back every piece of software I could.
  • Now, I spend a lot of my time getting companies to participate in open source ecosystems!

Projects where I'm a maintainer or contributor

  • gulp - The streaming build system
  • grain - Grain is a new language that puts academic language features to work
  • esy - A package manager for Reason, OCaml, and more
  • Binaryen - Optimizer and compiler/toolchain library for WebAssembly
  • uvwasi - WASI syscall API built atop libuv, which provides the WASI implementation for node.js and WAMR
  • snarkjs - zkSNARK implementation in JavaScript & WASM
  • release-please - A tool to generate release PRs based on the conventionalcommits.org spec
  • wasm-micro-runtime - A lightweight standalone WebAssembly runtime with small footprint, high performance and highly configurable features
  • gulp-sourcemaps - SourceMap support for the gulp ecosystem
  • Gulp Community - Best-in-class gulp plugins
