Hi!

I write software. Most of my open source software is here on GitHub.

I wrote and maintain jsonschema, a library for Python, as well as a number of other libraries for fully selfish reasons -- to make my own workflows easier :). Hopefully you find some of them useful. I also sporadically contribute to a number of other open source projects -- PyPy, Twisted, attrs and the PyPA repositories are all projects I respect greatly (even if I don't contribute to them as often as I wish I would)...

Any support is super appreciated -- if you do find anything I've written helpful, feel free to reach out! Outside of software, travel is my biggest passion, so we very well may end up in the same city at the same time.

4 sponsors are funding Julian’s work.

@Julian

Finding motivation for particular projects of mine is always tough -- I have a lot of diverse interests, and often am very easily "distracted" by the next fun-looking project rather than putting in work on something already out there or in use. Getting a few sponsors would give a nice extra boost of motivation to keep me centered.

A Coffee

If you just want to throw a coffee my way in thanks for any reason, I'd be more than thankful myself to drink it. I love coffee and coffee tourism, so if you want to send me coffee shop tips they're also appreciated.

Thanks

If you use one of my projects and want to send over a thank you, it's very much appreciated!

If you also are trying yourself to contribute to a project or get started in open source and need some tips, I'm happy to offer them! (I do this for free too! If you cannot afford $$ and you want help here, especially if you're from an underrepresented group, you're welcome to approach me in #python on Libera IRC, and I'll see what I can do)
