Hi, I'm Shinyzenith and I like to write open-source software.

Notable work:

I'm the primary author and maintainer of NextWM, swhkd, wayshot and a lot more wayland software.

I have contributed to wayland-rs, scenefx, qtile and a lot more open source software. I intend to keep doing so as and when I learn more about Wayland!

I spend a lot of time writing open-source software and would appreciate any help which enables me to continue to do so.

@Shinyzenith

I really need to invest in a better split ortho-linear keyboard for the wrist pain.
