Hi, I'm tidwall. I enjoy making software that is fast and friendly. Here are some of my most popular projects.

  • Tile38: Real-time geospatial and geofencing database
  • Gjson: JSON tool for Go
  • Evio: Fast event-loop networking for Go
  • BuntDB: Embeddable, in-memory, key/value database for Go
  • Redcon: Redis compatible server framework for Go

I also work on many smaller libraries and tools, often focusing on geospatial, data structures, and data formats.

  • Set of high performance collection types for C. (btree.c) (hashmap.c) (rtree.c)
  • GeoJSON library for Go with geometry operations like point-in-polygon.
  • JSON stream parser for Rust and Go that parses gigabytes of json per sec.
  • And more.

3 sponsors are funding tidwall’s work.
