Hiya, I'm Phil, or @kitten!

If you're lurking around in the GraphQL, React, or general JavaScript community, maybe we've met before! I passionately support and/or build projects in the React, Reason, and GraphQL ecosystems, and am focused on solving interesting problems while improving everyone's Developer Experience. 💡
Generally this means you'll see me on tools that gravitate towards tooling & architecture to make your job hopefully a little easier and more enjoyable.

Here's a list of projects I've been working on, or help maintain:

• styled-components — CSS-in-JS for React
• wonka — streams in Reason
• reghex —�?a JS parser generator using sticky regexes
• graphql-parse* — a tiny implementation of the GraphQL language in reghex
• use-editable — some contenteditable shenanigans
• bunpkg — an experiment to port Unpkg to Cloudflare Workers
• pessimism* and hachiko* — Really just some HAMT code snippets
• sweetsour* — some CSS-in-JS parsing experiments
• tiny-css-prefixer —�?a tiny CSS prefixer
• babel-plugin-modular-graphql* —�?basically babel-plugin-lodash for GraphQL

*these marked projects are really not that important... just experimental playgrounds.

I currently work at @Formidable in our London office, which supports me to also be a core contributor or former author on the following repositories:

• urql — the flexible GraphQL client
• prism-react-renderer — A React library to render directly to elements using PrismJS
• react-ssr-prepass — A server-side tree walker for prepass React Suspense support
• react-live —�?A flexible playground for live editing React code

A lot of my free time is often planned in to try out new experiments and ideas to either utilise these tools to their fullest or make new tools that enable me or others to make other cool apps and tools! That's why I see this community as a very valuable and powerful driving force that can get further than most would expect!

I don't work on Open Source full-time, but in bursts, but I do appreciate the occasional cup of coffee and tea, which is why GitHub Sponsors exists, I suppose! ☕💖

Note on Sponsorships: I don't rely on sponsorships directly. In fact, currently I can call myself lucky that several initiatives at Formidable support my Open Source work and experiments. I also don't want anyone to feel that they should sponsor me here when they enjoy or use any of my work and code. This is why I see this as a token of appreciation ❤️ instead, and the tiers I have are accordingly low.
