Alexander Petros

Now

I'm a Information Technology Specialist for the IRS. I recently lead the launch of the new Tax Withholding Estimator, which I wrote about in XML is a Cheap DSL.

I'm currently writing The Triptych Proposals, three WHATWG proposals to bring expressive, declarative network requests to pure HTML. I outlined the basic principles of it in The Life & Death of htmx.

I'm a maintainer for htmx, a frontend library that uses element attributes to extend the hypermedia capabilities of HTML, rather than replacing them.

I'm a freelance software contractor, building and maintaining bespoke web services. Contact me if you're interested in hearing more.

I'm also working on an ActivityPub concept.
