Aidan contributed to both the Shopify/nixpkgs and golang/go repositories, focusing on backend development and package management. In Shopify/nixpkgs, Aidan integrated the Vim Moonfly Colors plugin, enabling reproducible builds and seamless installation through Nix by configuring GitHub-based fetch and build processes. This work included clear documentation to support maintainers and users. In golang/go, Aidan enhanced MIME type handling by expanding the builtinTypesLower map to cover a broader range of media types, aligning with IANA standards and improving cross-platform compatibility. Throughout both projects, Aidan demonstrated proficiency in Go, Nix, and test-driven development, delivering well-scoped, maintainable features.
