About Erin Schnabel
creating ridiculous things.
This page exists because people occasionally ask how they can support my work. If you've found value in the projects I maintain or contribute to, thank you so much — I truly appreciate your support.
What I'm currently working on:
ttrpg-convert-cli is probably what most people know me for. It is a CLI tool (written in Java with Quarkus) that converts 5eTools and Pf2eTools JSON into Obsidian-friendly markdown for D&D 5e and Pathfinder 2e campaigns.
I also maintain several Obsidian plugins and tools:
- Task Collector — Manage tasks within documents
- Day Planner OG — Day planning and managing pomodoro timers from a markdown task list.
- Slides Extended — Create markdown-based reveal.js presentations
- Vault MCP — MCP tool allowing Open WebUI or Claude Desktop to retrieve files from your vault.
- Prompt Flow — Local AI content generation with Ollama, featuring custom prompts, content filtering, and continuous conversations.
- Ebullientworks theme — A dark and light theme that I balanced around particlar shades of purple and green.
I rotate between these projects depending on what needs attention. Some have been around for a while and get good use; others are brand new.
I'm also developing some new personal tools for managing executive function challenges, including LLM-assisted journaling workflows. These are still early and experimental, but they're teaching me a lot about building accessible tools for executive function support.
Every time someone buys me a coffee, it's a lift to my day. Beyond that, knowing people find what I've built useful encourages me to keep these projects functioning and to build more (sometimes ridiculous) useful things.
Also close to my heart: I'm one of the founders and current Chair of the Commonhaus Foundation, a 501(c)(6) nonprofit dedicated to sustaining open source projects. If infrastructure for open source sustainability resonates with you, please consider sponsoring Commonhaus directly or becoming a member. ❤️
