Hi, I'm José Daniel.

About me

I started programming somewhere unexpected: Minecraft Bedrock's command blocks. Curiosity about game mechanics turned into custom JavaScript addons for my servers, and from there into automation and bot development.

My breakthrough came with WhatsApp bots. I wanted to understand how they worked, so I built my own with TypeScript and Baileys. That project showed me the value of clean, type-safe code, and I've kept learning and experimenting ever since.

Working on

• Open-source modules for the npm ecosystem.
• Developer tools that simplify complex workflows.
• Exploring Rust to understand systems programming.
• Learning Python for data manipulation and automation.

Projects

• protobuf Protobuf code generator and runtime for TypeScript. ESM only, no protoc.
• wabotjs Lightweight WhatsApp bot framework built on Baileys.

Earlier work

Archived, published on npm under my previous account @imjxsx.

• logger Customizable logger for Node.js, with ANSI colors. ~8k npm downloads each in 2026.
• localdb MongoDB-style BSON database for Node.js with zero dependencies.
• wapi Fast, secure WhatsApp bot framework written 100% in TypeScript.
