🚀 Let's make life better for software engineers, one tool at a time!

TypeScript is great. I want your build system to be awesome, too.

Sponsor my work on:

  • API Extractor - a TypeScript analyzer and documentation tool
  • Heft - a config-driven toolchain that invokes other popular tools such as TypeScript, ESLint, Jest, Webpack, and API Extractor
  • Rush - a NodeJS build orchestrator
  • Rush Stack - a collection of other components used with Rush
  • TSDoc - a standard for TypeScript doc comments, parser library, and ESLint rule

Pay money?! Isn't open source free?

Open source is free to use. But it's expensive to make. I personally invest a lot of time in designing, implementing, documenting, maintaining, and promoting free software to make your life better as an engineer.

It's not about the money. Your support helps me to justify this time investment. To myself, but also to my family and my employer. 😉

Just a few bucks beats thousands of GitHub stars, Twitter likes, or download stats. Sponsorship is genuine and personal. Thank you!

Why monthly?

GitHub has adopted a similar model as Patreon. This article explains why they strongly encourage ongoing sponsorship, even if it is a small amount. It makes sense.

But it's up to you. One-time donations are greatly appreciated as well!
