Hi! I'm Matilde (or Mati for short).

I'm just a girl in love with Rust and Wayland trying to contribute what I can back to the world.

Thank you for considering supporting my work! ✨

My main work focuses on Verdi, a modern and performant compositor that's not afraid of doing things differently. To do so, I am rebuilding the Wayland ecosystem from scratch on top of modern async primitives and the Tokio runtime. Most notably, I created and maintain core libraries like:

  • Waynest - an async implementation of the Wayland protocol
  • Saddle - an async session management library
  • Colpetto - an async wrapper for libinput

On the side, I'm also making my own bootloader and OS, so there's that too :3

Currently, I rely on my day job for financial stability, which limits the time I can spend on the work I'm passionate about. Your sponsorship would help me dedicate more time to these projects.

I also offer consultations, technical help, and support services specifically related to the projects I maintain at negotiable fees. Feel free to reach out if you need specialized assistance!

@morr0ne

This would allow me to reduce my day job hours and dedicate significant time to these open-source projects instead of just evenings and weekends.
