Become a sponsor to Estevão Soares dos Santos

I'm a doctor, Public Health resident from Portugal. I strongly believe in the sharing of (scientific) knowledge and the open-source philosophy.

Among other projects (that you can check in my profile) I've been developing and maintaining Showdownjs for the last 5 years. As you know, Showdown is a free library and it will remain free. However, maintaining and improving the library costs time and money.

I have been developing the library in my free-time, as a passion project! I am so full of ideas that I want to develop but I can only stretch myself so thin. If I could raise the funds to hire people to help me and stop working extra-hours at my regular job, I would be a very happy person with more time to dedicate to this (an other) amazing projects!

If you like my work and find this library useful, please donate! Your contribution will be greatly appreciated

Maintaining project websites and showdown's API costs money 'cause I need to pay for a lot of stuff (just Openshift costs 50$ monthly). Also, I would LOVE to start testing IN ALL BROWSERS and versions (using browserstack, which costs 129$ a month).
