Hello, I'm Salma. You may also know me as whitep4nth3r.
I help developers build stuff, learn things and love what they do.
With a background in music, teaching and comedy, and after a career as a front end developer and lead engineer, I’m now a Developer Experience Engineer at Netlify, and maintain a thriving online tech community built around my Twitch streams and open source projects — The Claw.
I am a Microsoft MVP for Developer Technologies, Twitch partner, speaker, tech content creator, and relentless advocate for building a truly accessible web. My expertise is the Jamstack and related front end web technologies, and you will often see me working in public with open source frameworks on the Jamstack such as Next.js.
My open source projects include unbreak.tech and womenwhostream.tech, and most revolve around activism for social change and equality in the technology industry.
Your valued sponsorship will go towards the cost of keeping the open source apps in production, enabling the voices of under-represented people in tech to be elevated and celebrated.
2 sponsors are funding whitep4nth3r’s work.
Reaching this goal will support the ongoing costs to keep my open source apps in production for the community.
