Summary
🤩
Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolChris Schlensker is a Principal Fullstack Web Engineer based in the San Francisco Bay Area with 15 years of experience designing and building visually-driven, customer-centric frontend systems. He blends a graphic and web design foundation with deep frontend engineering expertise—design systems, animation, React, and advanced JavaScript—while also having backed that up with backend and distributed systems work. At Square he maintained product design systems used by 60+ engineers and prototyped a React-based email design workflow; more recently he narrowed his focus to frontend to work closely with design and product teams. Chris contributes to open source (including core iOS keyboard-avoidance fixes) and enjoys tackling designer-led challenges rather than shutting them down. Colleagues rely on him to translate ambitious visual concepts into robust, production-ready interfaces that prioritize usability and polish.

A drop-in universal solution for moving text fields out of the way of the keyboard in iOS
Role in this project:
Mobile Developer (iOS)
Mobile Developer (iOS)Contributions:6 commits in 3 days
Contributions summary:Chris primarily contributed to the `TPKeyboardAvoiding` repository by implementing core functionality and addressing bugs related to the keyboard's interaction with scroll views. They modified the scroll view's behavior to correctly adjust content insets and content offsets to prevent the keyboard from obscuring text fields, as well as added the feature to resign the first responder when the scroll view is tapped. The user also added a public method to adjust the scrollview when switching between textFields and implemented changes to support fields that are grandchildren of the scrollview.
