Neumann-A
Germany

I'm a German physicist with a focus on research of magnetic materials.
Since I do magnetic simulations using C++ I need a simple way to obtain the required dependencies. One way to obtain dependencies is via vcpkg.
Since science, in general, requires easy access to 3rd party libraries, I thought helping with vcpkg is time well spend. This made me one of the top, not MS employed, contributors to vcpkg and I contributed ports for e.g. Qt, VTK, ParaView.

So If you want to support my future work on vcpkg or other open source projects feel free to sponsor me

@Neumann-A

Starting small: Having 10 sponsors shows me that there is some value for others in what I do.

Featured work

  1. Neumann-A/my-vcpkg-triplets

    my collection of vcpkg triplets

    CMake 72
  2. Neumann-A/my-vcpkg-ports

    Collection of vcpkg ports for some of my repos

    CMake 11
  3. Neumann-A/CMakeJSON

    Trying to get CMake work in a reasonable JSON format.

    CMake 13
  4. Neumann-A/StochasticPhysics

    A C++ "Framework" to perform stochastic simulations. Currently mainly focused on the simulation of the magnetisation behavior of nanoparticles in a makrospin approximation

    C++ 3

The why the heck not tier.

This sponsoring tier is a social experiement. I don't believe anybody would ever sponsor me on this tier but as a scientist I liked to be proven wrong. Furthermore GH allows 10 tiers so why the heck not? I would probably buy new hardware with this to increase my local build throughput.
