I build developer tools since 2013

Hi! I'm Stefan Buck a software engineer with passion for the web. In 2013 I wrote the initial version of OctoLinker a browser extension for GitHub trusted by over 30,000 developers. More recently, I created Pull Request Badge a GitHub App that brings badges to your Pull Requests in an automated way — and more tools are on the way.
