PROFILE
Francesco Urbani
Worked on cross-platform build stability and language tooling, focusing on two open-source projects. In riscv/sail-riscv, addressed macOS build failures by integrating OPAM-based Sail installation and resolving dependency ordering for sail_runtime, then updated the CI workflow to include macOS builds, improving reliability and onboarding for macOS contributors. Later, contributed to helix-editor by adding SystemVerilog support through a new Tree-sitter grammar and refining Verilog configuration, enabling accurate syntax highlighting and parsing for hardware design workflows. Utilized skills in CI/CD, build systems, and language tooling, working with CMake, Shell, and YAML to enhance developer experience and project maintainability.

Aug 1, 2025August 2025: Delivered SystemVerilog support in helix-editor by introducing a new Tree-sitter grammar and refining Verilog configuration. This work enables parsing and syntax highlighting for SystemVerilog files, improving developer productivity for hardware-design workflows and broadening language coverage. The change lays groundwork for more hardware-oriented language features and stricter language configurations, reducing misparsing and manual tuning.
