My name is Arthur Pacaud and I'm a hobbyist developer 👋
My main project is currently THNK, an open source, full-fledged, and high performance multiplayer game framework for GDevelop. Most of my contributions to open source are around the open source no-/low-code game engine GDevelop.
A few other projects I am proud of:
- gdmod, a modding API and mod loader for any GDevelop game.
- gdexporter, a CLI exporter for GDevelop games.
- cloud-gdjs, a cloud-ready runtime for GDevelop games, that removes all rendering code.
A few discontinued projects that were very interesting and enriching to build:
- node-discord-game-sdk, a node native module made with C++ to interact with discord using their game SDK.
- create-project-state, a framework agnostic, reactive and fully typesafe state management library for editors built in TypeScript.
- cordova-webshare-api, a cordova plugin to add a spec-compliant WebShare API implementation to cordova's android platform.
And finally, my numerous extensions and examples for GDevelop:

- I believe JSX is the ultimate templating method 😤
- My favorite language is TypeScript, as it allows for great flexibility while still letting one move fast without breaking things.
- I sometimes use C++ and Python.
- I am getting really into kubernetes 😎 It's a very interesting tool!
- I am meaning to start learning rust and elixir seriously.
I was born in Paris. I am 18 and just finished highschool in Bonn (Germany). I plan to try and get into the KIT University after graduating from highschool. When not programming, I help moderating a few communities and I also like cooking (even though I am not skilled at it 😅). I really like open source software. Although I do not contribute to many software aside from GDevelop, I have plenty of my own 💪
