Become a sponsor to Hunter Wittenborn

Hey! 👋 I'm Hunter Wittenborn, a maintainer of several open-source projects here on GitHub.

When I'm not working with code, I can be found playing piano, simply enjoying being outside, or doing a wide variety of things to make myself a better programmer. All of these things combine to improve what I do every day!

My projects

The main projects I'm focusing on right now are Celeste and makedeb. Both have helped tremendously in getting my programming skills to where they are today, and it's nice to see it all paying off in the large and diverse amount of people using them!

Why sponsor me?

Being a university student, budget constraints can often present themselves as a burden. Sponsorships provide a great way to help pay for resources such as servers and email hosting, allowing me to keep my eyes focused on creating great products, instead on how I'm going to manage paying the next month's bill. Sponsorships also help pay for my daily expenses, allowing me to spend less time on day jobs and more time working on my projects.

Being a sponsor also sends a message that you find my work beneficial! Through sponsorships, you help in showing that you enjoy my work, and that you'd like to see and help ensure a bright future for the projects I work on.

Sponsorships ultimately help me to keep working on the tools that you use day after day, and helps to give them a better opportunity to stay maintainable and thriving in the future!

I would appreciate your support tremendously in helping me to keep focusing on my projects.

After hitting this goal, I'll have enough money to quit my day job and focus solely on my projects and schooling.
