Become a sponsor to GGOBP
Hi, I'm GG-O-BP! ๐
I'm a developer working at the intersection of two things I love: Mendix and Gleam. By day I build Mendix widgets; in my own time I build the open-source tooling I wish had existed when I started.
My flagship project is glendix โ a Gleam library that talks to React 19 and Mendix Pluggable Widgets. With glendix, you can write real, production-ready Mendix widgets entirely in Gleam, with no JSX in sight. It already ships with:
- 40 React hooks and 154+ event handlers
- 108+ HTML attributes, 85+ HTML tags, 58 SVG elements
- npm bindings, so the entire React ecosystem is reusable
- .mpk packaging support and a Mendix Marketplace downloader
- A one-command scaffolding tool: npx create-mendix-widget-gleam
My mission is twofold:
- Expand Mendix's open-source ecosystem and make Mendix a better tool for everyone who builds with it.
- Grow Gleam adoption by proving it can power serious, production-grade work โ not just experiments.
Mendix developers deserve a richer open-source ecosystem, and Gleam deserves to be tried by more of them. glendix is where those two goals meet: it gives Mendix developers a safer, more delightful language, and gives Gleam developers a path into enterprise low-code.
Your sponsorship makes this work sustainable. It lets me spend more time on glendix itself โ deeper API coverage, better docs, ready-to-use widget templates, and real-world examples โ instead of squeezing open source into leftover hours. Every tier helps keep this ecosystem free, open, and improving.
Thank you for helping me build it. ๐ธ
