Become a sponsor to Jesse Youngblood

Hi! 👋

I'm Jesse Youngblood, I'm a full stack developer in Boston. Like most developers I've benefited from open source for most of my professional career, so I've been working to give back.

You probably know me from pm2-installer, which is the officially recommended way to install pm2 on Windows. It also makes installing the pm2 service without an internet connection a breeze on both Linux and Windows.

I maintain the env-smart package on npm, a zero-dependency library for loading environmental variables and .env files with types and default values in TypeScript or JavaScript.

I also wrote the simple-hmac-auth protocol, a library designed to make building REST APIs that use HMAC signatures for authentication incredibly simple. I maintain client implementations for Node, Swift, Objective-C, and PHP, as well as server middleware plugins for Express and Koa.

Thanks so much for stopping by! 🍻
