πŸ‘‹ Hi, I'm Ugo

Pascal was my first love; cryptography came later, and the intersection turned out to be a quieter corner of the ecosystem than I expected. I've spent years building out a question most of the ecosystem stopped asking: can Object Pascal have first-class modern cryptography?

πŸ”§ What I'm working on

The answer lives across CryptoLib4Pascal, HashLib4Pascal, SimpleBaseLib4Pascal, and a handful of related libraries that bring modern, well-tested cryptography to Object Pascal, across Delphi and FreePascal, on every major desktop and mobile platform.

Odds are, if you ship Pascal code that needs to be cryptographically serious, one of these libraries is somewhere in your dependency tree.

πŸ’š Why sponsor

These libraries are maintained by one person on volunteered time. Sponsorship goes directly toward:

  • Keeping them maintained. Bug fixes, security updates, new primitives as the field moves.
  • Keeping CI green. Testing across compilers, CPUs, and the long tail of platforms Pascal developers actually ship to.
  • Hardware for real-world testing. Physical devices and dev boards so I can verify the libraries work on the platforms users actually run them on, not just in emulators.
  • The implementation work ahead. Bringing more production-grade cryptography to a language ecosystem that has earned more than it currently gets.

If your project depends on this work, or you just want to see modern crypto stay alive in Pascal, sponsorship makes a real difference. Thank you. πŸ™

@Xor-el

Every sponsor buys back hours I'd otherwise spend elsewhere - hours that go straight into the Object Pascal cryptography ecosystem.
