Open Source Maintainer & Advocate
I'm a coder, author, & speaker. I maintain the ramsey/uuid library for PHP, along with many other packages that help developers do their work, and I'm working to build a friendlier PHP community through the PHP Community Foundation.
Your support encourages and motivates me to continue building and maintaining open source software.
If you're a company who benefits from my work, consider supporting me through the Tidelift Subscription. Get commercial maintenance and assurances, while supporting my work. Learn more!
If you're interested in more information about the PHP Community Foundation, or you'd like to support it directly, please contact me at ben@phpcommunity.org.
