Hi! I'm JC 👋

I have the privilege of leading the GitHub Next team, and exploring the future of software. Between GitHub and Microsoft (where I previously worked), I've had a chance to build lots of cool and interesting developer tools and services over the last 16 years (e.g. Codespaces, IntelliCode, Visual Studio, Live Share, ASP.NET, browser tools for IE, CodePush). I'm extremely passionate about developer productivity and collaboration, and in particular, helping to make it easier to contribute to projects, share ideas amongst your teams and the community, and supporting remote-friendly cultures.

I also love Visual Studio Code, and in particular, it's extensibility ecosystem. As a result, I work on a few extensions that allow me to explore new ideas in developer collaboration and knowledge sharing:

  • CodeTour - Record and playback guided tutorials for codebases. It's like a table-of-contents for projects, and helps walk developers through a codebase, directly from the comfort of their editor.

  • GistPad - Create and edit GitHub Gists and repos, directly from the editor, and without needing to clone anything. I think of GitHub as the universal developer storage, and so GistPad is trying to provide a remotely editable client, so that it's easier to edit and access your knowledge 👍

  • CodeSwing - A fun and interactive coding environment for building web applications snippets (aka "swings").

  • GitDoc - Edit a local Git repo like a multi-file, versioned document. Auto-commit your changes, easily manage history, and keep your changes in sync, without needing to care about the Git CLI at all!
