Hi, I'm Ricky White 👋

I'm a Technical Writer and Engineer with a passion for open-source software and making technology accessible to everyone. I believe in the power of collaboration and knowledge sharing, which is why I dedicate my time to creating and maintaining a variety of open-source projects.

What I Do
I'm the creator and maintainer of several open-source projects that you might find useful:

• python-template-snippets: A VS Code extension for Jinja2 and Django templates that helps you write code faster.
• pgn-to-sqlite: A tool for importing your chess games from chess.com and lichess.org into a SQLite database for analysis.
• pyanchor: A handy tool for finding broken links on your website or in your documentation.
• kachi: A simple file backup tool to keep your important files safe.

As a Lead Engineer specializing in Identity and Access Management (IAM/PAM), I'm passionate about security and building robust, scalable solutions. I bring this expertise to my open-source work, ensuring that my projects are not only functional but also secure.
