What I do

I am a mypy core team member and do CS research.

I am a student most of the time, studying Computer Science. I am fascinated by programming language theory and so in my spare time I work on mypy, a static type checker for Python. Within mypy, I work on Windows support, packaging type information, and general type system improvements and bug fixes. I am the author of PEP 561: Distributing and Packaging Type Information which specifies how type checkers look for type information in packages. I also am currently Site Manager at the Open Computing Facility where we provide free computing to students based on a FOSS stack.

How sponsorship helps

As a university student, I don't have a full time job paying for things. Sponsorship means I can justify more time working on mypy and other projects.

Thank you for your consideration, I am very grateful for any donation.

Best,
Ethan

Any amount is appreciated. Cheers!
