Producer
Led globe-spanning team of volunteers.
Released addon with over 200,000 downloads at the time I left the project.

While the project has been changed and improved over the years, the original work on this addon was done by myself, and can be seen using the commit filter for my username (https://github.com/Ludovicus-Maior/WoW-Pro-Guides/commits/main/?author=CodingDino). This is some of my earliest programming work, but shows use of the Lua language within the WoW API.
