This tier will provide members with a private group chat which will take priority in my dealing with issues related to my work here on github. This will also be a huge help for ensuring the stability of open source packages I maintain as I do not work for any company or have any funding for them currently.

Suggestions for new tutorial videos on my YouTube channel will be taken here by this tier!

This tier will be dedicated to creating custom solutions for packages that I have created or for ones that I am involved in. For example, custom poster templates for your company or lab group using the posterdown package, or custom templates for paged documentation such as the thesis template I made as an author on the pagedown package.
