...WTF?

The Beginning



  • HTL 1 Bau und Design
  • same stuff over and over again
  • coded useful scripts
  • published them (http://doebi.at/rechner/)
  • too specific

The Idea




"an online easy to use general purpose
statics calculation app"

Make it better


  • incompatible with newer OSs
  • confusing UI
  • expensive


The Concept



  • web app in your browser
  • no dependencies
  • works on any OS
  • server as brain and backup
  • anywhere with any device

Status Quo
