I recently became aware of @bmusson's work on the Embr modules and was blown away by the excellent components and support he provides on the forums and on GitHub. As a great comedian once said, "the chess speaks for itself" - in this case, if you spend any time on the forums, you would know that Ben's work speaks for itself.

If you wish to become a sponsor, [here is the link](https://github.com/mussonindustrial) to their GitHub account. I would also like to say that I am in no way incentivized to make this post - I haven't met Ben and most likely never will 😢, nor am I paid in any way for anything. I feel like I should say this in our age of "influencers" that will say anything about a product they don't know or care about, as long as they are paid.

Of course, my decision was also not in any way influenced by the promise of swag \[1\], but I just received a swag kit and was blown away at the variety of useful stuff, so I just wanted to share that here, as inspiration for anyone wanting to support independent module developers

**EDIT:** I meant to insert the link to Musson Industrial's GitHub for other potential sponsors, but I forgot to. I also added a disclaimer above.

I would have expected him to ship it out the right way up! 😜

Ah - fixed!
