# A small software maker with high standards

Zyloft is an independent software maker from Germany. We design, build and sell our own products: Windows programs, mobile apps and web apps for people who want software that simply works.

## Why we build our own products

A lot of software today is built around subscriptions, cloud accounts and data collection. We think many tools work better the other way around: installed on your own device, paid for once where possible, and careful with your data.

Building our own products lets us take that approach seriously and take the time to get the details right.

## How we work

Each product starts with a concrete problem we know well. We keep the scope focused, test on everyday hardware rather than only the newest devices, and release only what we would use ourselves.

After release, we keep improving: updates for new operating system versions, new legal requirements and feedback from the people who use our software.

## The technology behind it

- **C# and .NET (Windows):** For desktop programs that start fast, run natively on Windows and keep working for years. Zyloft Desk is a WPF application on .NET.
- **React Native (iPhone & Android):** For apps that feel at home on both iOS and Android, built from a single codebase.
- **Next.js (Web):** For web apps and websites that load fast and that search engines read easily, like this one.
