Become a sponsor to Nicolas (Nick) Escoffier

Born and raised in the south of France, in a family of teachers and gov employees, I randomly fell into web design then coding in my early 20s and loved every second of it since. Self taught and passionate I have worked for more than a dozen of companies over 3 different countries, from the old age of IE6/IE7/IE8 nightmare compatibility and table-based websites and newsletters, to today where everything (or almost) goes through our browsers, on any device (close to) natively.

I've built websites, applications, and various interfaces on a multitude of supports with more frameworks and libraries than I can actually remember (jQuery, Zepto, Big.js, Ender, Ext.js, Backbone, Angular, React, React Native, Vue, Less, SASS, Stylus) mostly on the Front End side of things, but also to some extend on the Back End side with PHP, Node, RoR, Firebase... And even some ActionScript back when Flash was still a thing.

I used to contribute to some open source Zepto/jQuery libraries, React Native plugins, CSS frameworks etc... As well as coding multiple projects as personal challenges such as this one https://blog.prototypr.io/twitter-s-heart-animation-in-full-css-b1c00ca5b774 (that got me noticed then hired by a big tech company and ended up being my entry ticket to the US). Over the last few years the lack of time prevented me from contributing more and I would love to get back to it, and having sponsorship through GitHub would greatly help achieving that.

Mostly working with React, Redux, and Firebase these days. Eager to learn something new and challenging.

@OxyDesign

Would love to get some income from contributing to open source project that would help gradually switch my employment from full-time to part-time, then maybe at some point dedicating my time to open source.
