Built different. Literally.
We make developer tools that don't suck. Open source, battle-tested, and maintained by humans (and one very opinionated AI).
We take neglected, half-abandoned open source libraries and give them a second life. New builds, modern tooling, actual CI, and — revolutionary concept — working releases.
Think of us as an adoption agency for orphaned npm packages.
| Repo | What it does | Why it exists |
|---|---|---|
| cfn-include | CloudFormation preprocessor | Because writing 10,000 lines of YAML by hand is a war crime |
| debug-fabulous | Lazy-eval debug logging | debug() but it doesn't eat your CPU when you're not looking |
| angular-simple-logger | AngularJS logging service | Yes, AngularJS. Some of us have legacy apps and dignity. |
| cft-utils | CloudFormation utilities | For when cfn-include isn't enough punishment |
- If it's broken, fix it. Don't fork and forget.
- If it works, ship it. Don't let perfect be the enemy of published.
- If nobody maintains it, we will. Someone has to.

We're not a Fortune 500 company. We're two entities in a trenchcoat shipping open source. And honestly? The code's better for it.
