Hello there! My name is Alex: an Elixir alchemist.

Elixir has been my main language since 2016. Its tools and friendly community encouraged me for the first time to contribute to Open Source.

It's rewarding to be able to build tools others might find useful. And it's even better, when this same people help you build a better tool: bug reports, feature requests and more than welcome pull requests.

Projects I Actively Maintain

  • AyeSQL: an Elixir library for using raw SQL.
  • Skogsrå: an Elixir library for handling application configuration with ease.
  • Yggdrasil: An agnostic Elixir pubsub app with a simple API. Some adapters for Yggdrasil:
  • ICON SDK: A SDK to connect to the ICON 2.0 blockchain either via its JSON RPC API or realtime updates via its websocket.
  • Hab: a simple zsh plugin for handling environment variables.
  • Oath: a simple zsh plugin for handling one-time passwords in the shell.
