Philosophy

As a company, we embrace "building in public". The most effective way to create APIs that developers actively want to use is by building a community and listening to their feedback. You can't do that if you work behind closed doors.

  • Open Source

    Textualize was founded by an open source developer. It is in our blood. We have benefited massively from the work of other open source projects and intend to give back to the FOSS community.

  • Inclusivity

    We welcome users and developers of all backgrounds. It is important that anyone who wants to contribute should feel welcome in our community.

Team

Textualize is a team of developers working from Edinburgh, Scotland; and remote.
