What we build.
Software, tools, directories, and publications. Each one designed, built, and still run by the same small team.
Software, tools, directories, publications.
Different shapes, one standard. Each one was drawn, built and shipped by the same people, and each one is still run by them.
Every product here had to earn the cost of running it.
We do not keep software alive out of sentiment. A product stays because people use it and because we still believe it should exist.
The ones that stopped earning their keep are not on this page.
