independent software studio

Small, sharp apps โ€” grown from seed.

// patilla.dev โ€” from patilla (n.), watermelon ๐Ÿ‰. a studio where the code has seeds.

$ ls ~/work

Things we've made.

A short shelf on purpose. Every app here is designed, built, and maintained in-house โ€” no clients, no committee.

$ cat studio.md

How we work.

No manifesto. Just five things we keep coming back to.

01_small
Few features, done properly.

Nothing that needs a settings screen to explain itself.

02_details
The details are the point.

The corners nobody asked about are the ones people feel โ€” so we sweat them.

03_keep
Built to keep.

Made to live on a phone for years, not to demo once and disappear.

04_ours
We build what we'd use.

No clients, no roadmap by committee.

05_bar
Good or nothing.

No "good enough." If it isn't genuinely right, it doesn't ship.
