Welcome!

Hi there! 🎉
I'm Timo, an Open Source Developer located in Switzerland.
I've created and now maintain a bunch of Free Open Source Software,
mainly written in Python to support a developers daily work.

Some of those projects are:

  • radish-bdd - A BDD tool and framework for Python
  • colorful - Terminal string styling done right, in Python
  • w1thermsensor - Semi-Official Python library to work with 1w therm sensors on Raspberry Pis and other micro computers
  • maya - A Python datetime library for humans™
  • click-man - click Plugin to generate man pages
  • awesome-asyncio - A curated list of awesome Python asyncio frameworks, libraries, software and resources

... more projects of mine can be found on my GitHub Page

Why you should support me

Maintaining Open Source software in my free time requires a lot of work and energy.
In contrary to the believe of some people that Free Open Source Software is just available,
improves, fixes and maintains itself I do that with much blood, sweat and tears.
Some of those projects need several hours a week of attention.

Thanks and kind words are always appreciated - However, supporting me with
a little bit of money shows that even more and would certainly motivate me
to keep up the work and time I invest into Open Source. 😍

Cheers,
— Timo
