its founder and maintainer Daniel Stenberg.

We talk security, CI systems, creation of curl, Fuzzing, IRC bots and a lot more!

Few software developers never even get near to having one

of their projects being picked up by a larger community.

A project that started as a currency plugin to an IRC bot.

Spun off and ended up becoming bigger and bigger resulting in being

adopted by over 10 billion devices. Well, this project is called

curl! Curl is known to be the stable swizz army knife that can

be used for making various types of transfer requests.
