Hi, I’m Rafael Tosta, the developer of ZapZap, a free and open source WhatsApp Web client focused on Linux.

I maintain ZapZap in my spare time, working on bug fixes, packaging, desktop integration, usability improvements, and support for different Linux distributions and formats such as Flatpak, AppImage, DEB, RPM/Copr, and Snap.

Sponsorship helps me cover the cost of AI-assisted development tools that I use to debug issues, investigate bugs, review code, and guide implementation tasks more efficiently. These tools are especially important because they help me save time and keep the project moving forward even with limited availability.

Your support helps me continue improving ZapZap, fixing problems faster, maintaining reliable Linux packages, and contributing to free software for the community.

Thank you for considering sponsoring my work.
