👋 Hi, I'm Kenny Root!

I'm a developer based in San Francisco. You might know me as kruton on GitHub.

💻 What I'm working on

My main focus is ConnectBot, the first SSH client for Android.
It’s a vital tool for sysadmins and developers who need to manage servers on the go. As part of the development of ConnectBot, I also work on:

• termlib: ConnectBot's Terminal component usable by other apps!
• sshlib: A Java-based library for apps to use to have SSH transport in their own app
• ssh-proto: A new Kotlin-based SSH library under development for the next generation of apps including ConnectBot

💖 Why sponsor me?

Open source software is a labor of love. Your sponsorship helps me:

1. Buy Test Devices: Android hardware is diverse! Funds help me purchase new devices to ensure ConnectBot works flawlessly on the latest screens and OS versions.
2. Dedicate Time: It allows me to spend more weekends and evenings fixing bugs, improving security, and reviewing community contributions.
3. Keep it Free: Your support helps ensure ConnectBot remains free and open for everyone.

Thank you for supporting open source! 🚀
