Hello! I’m Richard. I go by ichard26 on the internet. My pronouns are he/they.

I’m a hobby Python developer and OSS contributor. Over the years, I've served on the core team for several projects:

• pip: the Python package installer
• mypyc: a Python-to-C transcompiler for typed code, built on top of mypy
• black: your friendly code formatter for Python, known for its uncomprising code style
• bandersnatch: a simple mirror tool to generate a PEP 503 compliant index

I also serve as a moderator of the Python Discord community.

From time to time, I dabble in C and front-end web development. When I’m not doing development work, I like to take photographs, go for walks .. or both at the same time! 📷

Anyhow, I hope that you're having a good day :)
