Hello! I'm Rob Larsen and this is my corner of the GitHub universe. If you're here you might want to know a little bit about me, so here's what I've got:

  • I'm a long-time open source contributor and maintainer. Currently I'm owner of the @h5bp organization and the maintainer of HTML5-boilerplate, create-html5-boilerplate, main.css, Front-end Developer Interview Questions and several other personal projects related to collectible comic books.
  • I've written five books with O'Reilly, Packt and Wiley. I've written about the web in general (The Uncertain Web from O'Reilly) and core web technologies (HTML,CSS, JavaScript and SVG)
  • Professionally I work as a development manager at a private equity firm.

Feel free to contact me if you're interested in talking about freelance projects (I'm mostly interested in SVG/data visualization,) open source projects (feel free to pitch projects we can host @h5bp) or writing opportunities.

FYI: you can also sponsor me for my open source work 🙏
