Software engineer & open-source maintainer

Hello, I'm François Voron 👋

I've 10 years of experience working as CTO and lead developer in top-level startups in the SaaS industry. My expertise allowed those companies to grow with solid technical foundations and generate thousands of dollars in revenue.

I'm currently working at Polar, a modern billing platform for developers.

Open-source projects

Huge fan of Python, my main projects are related to web development, ASGI and users authentication.

• HTTPX WS, a WebSocket client for HTTPX.
• HTTPX OAuth, an async OAuth client using HTTPX.
• pwdlib, a modern password hashing library.
• FastAPI Users, the #1 authentication library for FastAPI

Author of the best-seller book about FastAPI

I'm one of the top experts in the FastAPI community, the #3 most-used web Python framework behind Django and Flask.

In collaboration with Packt, one of the leading tech book publishers in the UK, I've wrote a book to learn all the secrets of this framework and how data scientists can leverage its power to build efficient and reliable data science applications.

Since Summer 2023, a second edition is available with updated examples and a whole new project to build your very own generative AI system!
