I’mChris Krycho—a follower of Christ, a husband, and a dad. I’m a software engineer by trade; a theologian andcomposer by vocation; and a writer, runner, and erstwhile podcaster by hobby.

I currently work on the internal developer platform atVanta, helping make a big TypeScript application faster and better—and thereby helping secure the broader web ecosystem.

In 2024, I contributed new materials and a major revision toThe Rust Programming Language book, including a new chapter on async programming in Rust and updates for the Rust 2024 Edition. From 2019–2023, I delivered top-notchTypeScript support forLinkedIn, including a spec forSemantic Versioning for TypeScript Types, and drove theEmber TypeScript roadmap and significant parts of Ember’s framework roadmap.

Previously, I cohosted and producedWinning Slowly, a podcast about technology, religion, ethics and art; and createdNew Rustacean, a podcast which taught tens of thousands of peoplethe Rust programming language.

I am passionate about:

• programming languages and frameworks as tools for improving the reliability and usability of software
• theology proper and theological anthropology
• the intersection of Christian ethics and emerging technologies

You can sometimes find me onBluesky,LinkedIn, andMastodon—though onlysometimes!—but I’m always happiest to receiveemail. I also occasionally write forMere Orthodoxy.
