👋 Hi, I’m shibayan

Developer / Microsoft MVP (Azure) / Windows on Arm Enthusiast

I build and maintain open-source tools that make Azure and cloud-native development more reliable, secure, and enjoyable.
My projects are used by individuals and teams running production workloads on Azure, and I actively contribute back to the ecosystem.

If my work saves you time, reduces operational pain, or helps your business run more smoothly,
your sponsorship directly supports ongoing maintenance, new features, and long-term sustainability of these OSS projects.

🚀 What I’m working on (Azure / Cloud)

Acmebot series – Automated TLS certificate management on Azure

Production-proven ACME clients for Azure PaaS:

• App Service Acmebot
• Container Apps Acmebot
• Key Vault Acmebot

Azure platform extensions & tooling

• HTTP API Extensions for Azure Functions
• App Service Info
• IIS Manager Site Extension
• App Service Proxy Site Extension

These projects help teams secure endpoints, automate ops, and reduce manual cloud toil.

🧩 Libraries & Tools (.NET / C#)

• Sharprompt – Simple and elegant CLI prompt library
• WinQuickLook – macOS-like file preview for Windows
• CsvHelper.FastDynamic
• ImoutoDesktop

Focused on developer experience, productivity, and delightful tooling.

⚙️ C++ / Native

• iislua – Lua integration for IIS

🌍 OSS Contributions

I contribute to widely used platforms to improve real-world developer workflows:

Azure Functions

• Durable Functions
• RabbitMQ Extension

Terraform Provider for Azure

• Improved many data sources and resources

Windows on Arm enablement

• CMake
• electron-builder
• OpenCV
• vcpkg
• Volta

Helping more tools “just work” on Windows on Arm is a personal mission.

✍️ Writing & Knowledge Sharing

• 🇯🇵 Japanese blog: https://blog.shibayan.jp
• 🌍 English posts: https://dev.to/shibayan

I write about Azure internals, cloud architecture, OSS design, and platform quirks so others don’t have to rediscover them the hard way.

❤️ Why sponsor?

Sponsoring helps me:

• Maintain and support widely used OSS projects
• Improve documentation & reliability
• Add new Azure features faster
• Keep critical tools alive for the long run

If you rely on Acmebot or my Azure tooling in production,
your support is a way to invest back into the infrastructure you depend on.
