Hi, everyone! 👋🏼

My name is Chris. I am 29 years old & a passionate open-source developer who loves to travel the world, learn about new cultures & eat good food.

In case I am not travelling the world, I live in Los Angeles, CA. At the moment, though, my wife and I (+ our two dogs, Buddy & Lulu) are travelling for a couple more months. So, if you ever want to meet up, let us know—we would love to swing by for a drink/snack—no matter where in the world!

Currently, we are spending a lot of time in & around Germany because that's the part of the world I was born and raised. It's incredible showing my wife (who is from LA) my old "stomping grounds."

In my "free time," I am running remotely a software engineering company in Los Angeles. Though, my current near full-time focus lies in Open Source development, like developing & growing the Stacks ecosystem.

Your support and sponsorship mean a lot to me! ❤️

A few highlights

• Stacks - A full-stack framework powered by Vite
• Meema - Media & file management with ease—front & backend
• Open Web - Where web2 greatness meets web3 mindset. OW3 is a decentralized community that develops progressive, open web standards, and stacks.

My current focus

Aside from core Stacks development, these are the stacks we will finish next:

• Table (Q3 - Data tables with ease)
• Command Palette (Q3 - cmd + k for the web)
• Date Picker (Q3 - Beautiful, modern date picker)
• File Manager (Q3 - Build your own file manager—like Dropbox or Google Drive)
• Image (Q3 - Modern image experience)
• Video (Q3 - Modern video experience)
• Audio (Q3 - Modern audio experience)
• Web3 (Q3 - Solana support, cross-chain core Ethereum & Cardano drivers coming.)
  • Wallets (Q3 - Wallet Authentication)
  • NFT (Q3 - NFTs, Candy Machine mechanisms, and more.)
  • DeFi (Q4 - Cross-chain DeFi engine, including staking support)
  • DAO (Q4 - Powerful toolkit for DAO governance)

Timelines, in all likelihood, will change a lot but you may use those as indications of priorities.

Would love to hear from you & get to know you!

Oh, and say hi to Buddy, my dog & partner in crime, on Instagram!
