If you are a Python developer you have likely come across my work. Rich in particular has been downloaded 3 billion times 🤯 — it is even used in Pip. I also created Textual, a TUI application framework which has spawned an ecosystem of terminal-based apps.

I am currently on a sabbatical, and therefore have no income. But I will continue to maintain my projects and offer tech support for free. Consider sponsoring so I can continue to help Python devs and the Python community as much as I can!

I will post occasional updates and essays to my blog.

Note that this tier is for enterprise customers. If you are a solo dev in Open Source, I'm happy to jump on a call without sponsorship.

If you really need work done on Rich / Textual or other project, this is the option for you.

Be sure to arrange this with me before-hand. If you want an update to Rich or Textual I have to be convinced it is a good idea for the project as a whole.
