Nilesh

nileshtrivedi
Bengaluru, India

Been hacking full-stack for 20+ years. I build and contribute to open-source projects that improve the health of software/technology ecosystem. Some examples of my work are:

  • aicombinator: An GPT-based personal assistant bot that runs locally, understands tasks in natural language and with a human-reviewed library of composable tasks, can perform complex online tasks across multiple websites and webapps, by driving a browser on your local machine or call APIs when available.

  • LearnAwesome.org: A universal, open-source map of learning resources that helps you discover the right material at the right time with reviews from your trusted friends and experts.

  • Better: A browser extension that suggests healthy/ethical/better alternatives to products/businesses you are currently browsing

  • Polyglot.Network: An experimental business model for funding open-source projects. I believe that expecting individuals to contribute to FOSS is unreasonable when most of the benefits are being extracted by corporations.

Your sponsorship will help me spend more time on projects like these.

@nileshtrivedi

At this level, it will become possible for me to consistently spend ~5 hours/week on open-source work each week. This time is sufficient to ensure that projects are maintained updated and secure, and new features are added to attract new code/design contributors. LearnAwesome.org also incurs hosting costs which I have been bearing personally so far. This goal will also reduce that burden.
