Hi, my name is Felix.

Who am I? πŸ‘†

I am a self-taught programmer, who started as a linguist interested in Natural Language Processing, but somehow stumbled into the pure functional paradigm. My focus right now is on Haskell and its ecosystem. After 10 years of industry experience (mostly as Lead Developer) and almost as many years participating in open source projects on the side, I feel that getting sponsorships to focus my effort on OSS would help the community and companies relying on the Haskell ecosystem the most.

Prior work πŸ“š

Outside of my current closed source work, I maintain the safe-json and http-types libraries on my own and am co-maintainer of the password and wai / warp libraries (and the related packages).

Motivation βš’

I'd like to do more for the Haskell ecosystem and open source projects in general, so that is why I'm open to sponsorships at the moment.


Some things that are on my list right now:

  • improving the web development situation by working on http-types and wai/warp;
  • helping libraries stay on Stack LTSes when dependencies get updated;
  • supporting important libraries/packages with their issues;

1 sponsor has funded Vlix’s work.

Having one day a week throughout the year to work on improving the HTTP environment of the Haskell Ecosystem is my first goal.
