### Works

I write [free software][free-sw], but unfortunately not as a professional job.

If you're an employer, you can find my [CV](/cv/) in web format, printable as
PDF, browse some miscellaenous [work](/works/).

I accept payment and donation on [liberapay][liberapay].
You can also send me money on [patreon][patreon] ~~and
