Support is not only about money
See what I build first, then pick a way to back it: funding, stars, shares, code or feedback. Nothing moves behind a paywall.
Support usually means money; here, a star, a share or an issue carries the same weight. Look at what I build first, then choose how you want to back it, if you do. Everything is free and will stay that way; there is no promise or perk in return.

What I do
All of it is open and free to use, whether or not you back it.
- Open source I build packages and tools on GitHub that anyone can use.
- Labs Work on its way to becoming a product, with its state and maturity written out.
- Research Records of measurements, analyses and source reviews: what I found and how far I trust it.
- Blog Posts on engineering culture, architecture and product development.
- Free ebooks Ebooks on reliable systems that you can read at no cost.
- Just Ask Answers to the software questions you send stay open to everyone.
Financial support
Funding lets me spend time on all this. It is never required; only if you want to.
Free support
These count just as much as money: a star, a share, an issue or a note of feedback is real motivation for me to keep working.
