I (Ahmad Awais) and my incredible wife (Maedah Batool) are two engineers who fell head over heels for open source, and then, as fate would have it, for each other. You can read more about me here. Now, listen up! If you or your company are utilizing any of our projects or simply adore what I'm doing (who wouldn't?), it's time to put your money where your mouth is. Consider backing me, my friend, because I'm here to stay. I'm not just any developer, mind you—I'm the advocate that will fight for your right to amazing software. :)

Now, I don't want to sound too authoritative or anything, but your support would mean the world to me. I mean, who wouldn't want to help a talented and passionate developer like myself, right? Plus, by backing me, you'll play a crucial role in enabling me to continue doing what I do best – creating amazing projects that make a real difference.

But hey, I'm not just here to make demands. I genuinely want to foster a friendly and humble relationship with all the awesome folks out there who believe in the power of open-source. So, if you're on board with my vision and want to join this exciting journey, I'll be eternally grateful for your support.

Remember, every little bit counts! Whether it's a small contribution or a generous sponsorship, your support ensures that I can keep pushing the boundaries of innovation and continue being an advocate for open-source development. Together, we can make the tech world a better place.
