Hi my name is Chris,

I have been a Full Stack Developer for more then 20 years now. I have a passion for writing software and sharing it with all who might find it useful! I runnuxrefwhere I blog about many custom open source solutions for others. I even provide supporting packages for some of them ona public/free repositoryto which I've also additionally hosted and maintained for years now.

Recently I wrote a notification library called 📢Apprise(and it'sDocker/Sidecar API solution) that has gained me most of my visibility. It works with just about every platform out there (the popular ones anyway) such as Discord, Telegram, Slack, MSTeams, Twilio, Email, etc,. Whether you want to send an SMS Message to your spouse, or an email to your DevOps team, you can automate it all effortlessly. Apprise already supportsmore then 100+ notification servicesand is always growing!

How Sponsorship Helps

Although open source is a huge part of my life, I can only afford to be a part of it onsomeevenings and weekends. The rest of the time is devoted to my full time job that currently pays my bills. Sponsorship inspires me to focus more time on these open source products; it also greatly reduces (if not eliminates) the stress associated with my expenses such as hosting fees, domain renewals, and bandwidth costs.
