What do I do

I develop apps 💻 driven by design, with strong motives to follow best practices and publish with docs and release their source to help the community reuse without re-inventing and re-engineering and to be benefited by the community.

I develop libraries 📂 like nvm_viewer, graph_to_equation and protonn, that help people create, visualize 👁 and do things better with intuitive user interfaces. I write reusable ♻, tested, ready-to-use convenience wrappers and functions like singularity_tensorflow, imshowtools, imaugtools, mask-gpu, sampling_utils that would save plenty of time ⏳ for researchers.

I also develop libraries useful for engineers 🛠 such as action-cable-react-jwt and forks with added features 💡 such as react-native-wheel-picker-simple, react-native-scrollable-tabs-hybrid. And some fancy themes and extensions like tampermonkey_markdown_viewer, conky_system_monitor_revitalized and wmctrl. More on my repositories page.

Why sponsor

I do research in computer vision full-time. All my contributions are done in my free time voluntarily. I am very proud that I contribute to the open-source community, the community from which I get benefited as well.

If you think my contributions are valuable, I would be very grateful for your donation. Support and encourage me to develop more apps and keep updated existing apps, extensions and libraries. Sponsorship helps me cover some bills and save time with the dinner tier.

Thank you for taking the time to read this!

Best,
Saravanabalagi.
