René de Hesselle
I bring GTK apps to macOS (building, packaging, CI).
That's me
I'm René
Once upon a time
... I started looking into building and packaging Inkscape 1.0 for macOS. I wanted to help, put my skills to good use and then see what happens. I initially estimated that this engagement would keep me busy and interested for 6 months, I didn't have any plans beyond that. Which is a good thing, because life happens while you're making plans, and as it turns out, this was the beginning of my open-source career.
Today
... I'm building and packaging several GTK-based applications for macOS as this has become my specialty. I've taken on more responsibilities within the Inkscape project and joined their leadership committee. And I engage with upstream projects, e.g. doing macOS CI work for GNOME. Still not making plans though, I'm not running out of things to do anytime soon
