Full-time open-source maintainer

Sindre Sorhus

Sindre Sorhus maintains well over a thousand npm packages and is one of very few developers who works on open source full time, funded through sponsorships. His profile is the clearest example of breadth on GitHub: many small, single-purpose modules rather than a few large ones. The language distribution is almost entirely JavaScript and TypeScript, and the star totals are spread across hundreds of repositories instead of concentrated in one flagship project.
