Every OpenJDK project has four roles: Author, Committer, Reviewer and Lead. After my initial contributions to JavaFX 5 years ago, I got the 'Author' role, years later the 'Committer' role, and now the 'Reviewer' role. This shows that I'm a core part of the OpenJFX project.
OpenJDK CensusScript-IDE reached over 1,000 stars on GitHub.
Script-IDEI became a mentor for the Google Summer of Code program, guiding students in open source development. With a very interesting topic: JabRef Native Image Support
GSoC project pageFor the first time I made a Community Activity (instead of a talk). This was a hands-on experience - everyone can make their very first Open Source Commit and I helped and guided. In the end, we all worked together and made a contribution to JabRef.
I organized the Global Game Jam in Braunschweig again. The topic was 'Mask'. We made a game called FOQUS.
See GGJ site and play the game- I'm a big fan of Open Source and Open Knowledge. - You can find my published Open Source projects here. - All my Open Source projects and contributions were made in my free time.

Script-IDE is a Godot plugin I created to improve the script editor. Originally developed for my own personal use, I open sourced the project, and it now has over 1,000 stars on GitHub and is considered one of the essential plugins by the community. It transforms the Script UI into an IDE like UI. Tabs are used for navigating between scripts. The default Outline got an overhaul and now shows all members of the script (not just methods) with unique icons for faster navigation.

JavaFX was part of my daily work for a long time, as it was used in some industry projects. Over time, I came across errors and areas for improvement, and eventually began contributing. What began with my very first open-source contributions led to many more over time. By now, I have made >80 open source contributions to JavaFX.
All merged Contributions
I was always interested in video games. Godot was the first game engine where I really felt at home. As a consequence, I started to make games instead of just playing it! Similar to the other projects, I found problems along the way, so I started to do contributions as well. By now, I have made >50 open source contributions to Godot.

JabRef is an open-source, cross-platform citation and reference management tool. Written in Java and JavaFX. And so it was bound to happen that our paths would cross at some point. 🙂 As a member of the JabRef e.V association, I am currently working on improving the user interface and experience, assisting with my JavaFX knowledge, and fixing any bugs in JavaFX we encounter along the way. I also mentor students through the Google Summer of Code (GSoC) program.
