What do I do?

Renewed Tab

I created and maintain a browser extension called Renewed Tab. See Renewed Tab's donation page.

Luanti (formerly Minetest)

As a core developer, I've reviewed many hundreds of PRs and contributed hundreds of patches. I've also created a ton of resources, mods and tools for Luanti, such as:

• ContentDB - being able to download mods, games, and texture packs from within Luanti was a game-changer.
• Luanti Modding Book - a book to gently introduce people to the Luanti API.
• Mods - including awards, food, and sfinv.
• Capture the Flag - game and server. I was the original creator and led the project from 2012 to 2019, but have now handed it over.
• NodeBoxEditor - a tool to create node boxes.

I've performed outreach for Luanti - running the social media accounts, enabling the Luanti blog, and representing Luanti with a stall at four conferences.
