As Newton said : "If I have seen further it is by standing on the shoulders of Giants". So if you consider my projects helpful, it is by standing on the shoulders of giants — in the open source community.

My software motto is "Simple by default, powerful when needed".

User experience of my software should be seamless, intuitive and fun.
