## About
Cosmopolitan mostly stands on the shoulders of giants and has few novel
ideas, aside from taking care of low-level build system toil, so coding
can become more beautifully pleasant.
Cosmopolitan is maintained by Justine Tunney, who previously worked on
projects like TensorFlow, [Operation Rosehub], [Nomulus], and Google's
tape backups sre team. She's also helped radical activists by operating
the [Occupy Wall Street] website. Justine Tunney currently isn't on the
payroll of any company. She's been focusing on Cosmopolitan because she
wants to give back to Free Software which helped her be successful. See
her [LinkedIn] profile for further details on her professional history.
