Apoya a Ted

I’m an independent developer who enjoys solving practical problems with open source software. Most of my projects start because I need a better tool myself, then grow into something I hope becomes useful for other people.

I focus on building reliable, self-hostable, and automation-friendly software that saves time, reduces complexity, and helps existing systems work better together. Building things that help people is what drives me. It feels like what I’m here to do with my time on this rock.

These projects take time, money, and energy, balanced with family, work, and everyday life. If you’ve found something I’ve built useful, your support helps cover development time, testing hardware, hosting, and the ongoing work of maintaining and improving it.

Support can take many forms. Sharing a project, reporting a bug, contributing a fix, or helping someone else pursue their own calling all make a difference. There are people drawn to mathematics, chemistry, engineering, art, and countless other fields who could use a little help doing the work they’re already driven to do.

Unboxing videos and reactions have their place, but we also need people making things worth opening, ideas worth reacting to, and discoveries that move us forward. I hope my work helps someone do a little more of that, and that they can pass that help along.

Thank you for using my projects and helping make room for more people to build, discover, and create.
