Who first wrote the source code for ReactOS?
What is the name of the programmer who wrote the first program for ReactOS?
Re: Who first wrote the source code for ReactOS?
I don't know for sure but I assume it was Jason Filby, the first project coordinator.

Re: Who first wrote the source code for ReactOS?
Here's a link to the first commit, according to GitHub: https://github.com/reactos/reactos/comm ... e16490af43
The name I see a lot of there is David Welch. Also, Boudewijn Dekker and DJ Delorie.
It's also fun to see a file from 1992 by Linus Torvalds in there. (bitops.h)

The DJGPP developer?
Does S/he still contributes?
I don't know others.
Would you mind giving me a link to their profile?

It's just a name I found in the sources. Don't know if their work was done for ROS, or simply used in ROS by someone else.
Edit:
So the name DJ Delorie only shows up in coff.h, so I assume this was used from him, not directly contributed by him.
There's also this note in the FAQ file that's part of that commit:
