About
A studio, stated
plainly.
Doc ref: KO-MANIFESTO-04
koyua is a software studio that builds developer tools and products. It was founded on the idea that most software is built the easy way, and that the hard way is usually only hard the first time.
Statement
The tools developers use every day should be small, fast, and honest. Small enough to read, fast enough to forget about, and honest about what they do and don't do. koyua builds that kind of tool.
Everything is built in TypeScript, in the open, with a public changelog and no telemetry. When a tool is finished it is released; when it is not, the ledger says so. There is no roadmap that reads better than the repository.
The studio is one person, but this page is not about that. It is about the work, which is the only thing that should have to speak.
