👋 Become a Sponsor of Elio Struyf

Hi, I’m Elio, an engineering lead, Microsoft MVP, GitHub Star, public speaker, and open-source advocate. I create tools and services that empower developers and improve daily workflows — and I share everything I learn along the way.

Your sponsorship enables me to continue building, maintaining, and improving these projects, while supporting the developer community.

Projects I Maintain

Visitor Badge

A lightweight yet powerful service for generating visitor counters for GitHub READMEs, websites, and dashboards.

  • 100M+ badges created
  • 3M+ unique designs
  • ~€90/month in hosting costs

Your sponsorship helps keep it free and growing.

Front Matter CMS

A headless CMS that lives in Visual Studio Code. It simplifies content management for static site creators and developers.

Demo Time

A VS Code extension that makes live coding demos stress-free. Insert code, highlight steps, and trigger commands — all in one clean presenter interface.

Why Sponsor?

By becoming a sponsor, you’re not just supporting my work; you’re directly contributing to the open-source tools that help thousands of developers daily.

Your support:

  • Covers operational and hosting costs
  • Helps fund new ideas and features
  • Supports content creation, community engagement, and educational efforts
