Introduction

Hi there! I'm Dylan Perks: software engineer by day, open-source software maintainer by night. I'm currently spending my time on a number of open-source projects.

Sponsorships

Now you're probably here because you're interested in sponsoring me, or just curious about what's on this page. If it's the latter, well I don't blame you, otherwise, I love that you want to help me out! Your contributions will help support my open-source projects and will give me motivation to continue onwards with the numerous open-source projects that I author! Projects such as:

Silk.NET

Silk.NET, my favourite project of which my love sees no end, is your one-stop-shop for high-speed .NET multimedia, graphics, and compute; providing blazing fast bindings to popular low-level APIs such as OpenGL, OpenCL, OpenAL, OpenXR, GLFW, SDL, Vulkan, Assimp, and DirectX; written by yours truly with help of great friends. It offers barebones access to the low-level API while retaining a somewhat modern approach to native interop. It has been proven to perform well in real scenarios (such as games) and its first preview was produced within an astounding 2 months! Becoming a sponsor will help keep up that fiery pace that got us to where the library is today.
