Hi! I'm Lily! I'm a computer techromancer with interests in music, education, and OS dev

I work most significantly in the Nix/Nixpkgs/NixOS ecosystems, including work integrating systemd, COSMIC desktop environment, and Node.js tooling into Nixpkgs/NixOS, and maintain many packages, including core packages such as GStreamer

I additionally maintain some of my own projects such as zmk-nix and often work on and implement features or fixes around the open-source community, such as in Sonic Pi

By supporting me, you will make it so that I can continue to do this work and more while being less dependent on my day job for basic necessities, and so that I have to worry less about finances and can worry more about open-source work instead. Perhaps eventually I can even work on open-source full-time!

Do not feel pressured to donate to me (especially not to encourage particular work to get done), but I do appreciate every single kind word and every single donation that people feel inclined to send my way
