I'm Simon. I work as a fractional CTO out of Wollongong, and I ship open source in the margins.

I'm an owner of two projects you might have touched:

  • Scoop — the command-line installer for Windows (~24k stars). If you've run scoop install on a dev machine, some of what you're relying on is code I help keep running.
  • gdzig — Zig bindings for Godot 4. If you're writing games in Zig and targeting Godot, we're the bindings layer.

Some of my own projects:

  • zed-windows-builds — community Windows builds of the Zed editor. Around 1.4k stars.
  • pixels — disposable Linux containers for AI coding agents.
  • neutils — modern CLI utilities for everyday developer tasks, written in Zig.
  • terraform-provider-truenas — Terraform provider for TrueNAS.

None of these are my day job. Sponsorship is what turns "I'll get to it on the weekend" into "I'm on it today."

If one of these saves your team time, kicking in a few bucks a month keeps it maintained.

Thanks.
