Where it all started
Was it in a basement somewhere? Find out below.
Humble beginnings
kyco started back in April 2011, not from a basement, but a quirky little spot in a church in Cape Town, South Africa. We wanted to start a business and had no idea how to do that. So we ended up creating this website as a starting point.
Our mission
We strive to create code that's simple and useful.
Languages
We build web solutions with Rust, Python, Go, Node.js and TypeScript. On the desktop side we code with C++ and Python. For mobile and cross-platform we use Flutter and PWAs. We love both MySQL and MongoDB.
Tools
We use Git for version control. Git is awesome for many reasons and we love GitHub and Bitbucket. We use VS Code, Sublime and vim as our preferred text editors.
To simplify working with git we use SourceTree. We make use of Jira, Vercel, Firebase and Digital Ocean to get stuff out there. We use GoDaddy and Namecheap to manage our domain names.
All our code is open source.
