Folklore Software LLC
A focused consultancy for software teams
Folklore Software exists for consulting, contract engineering, workshops, and technical advising.
The strongest fit is iOS and Apple-platform software with enough backend, web, AI, or architecture complexity that senior judgment matters.
Working Style
Senior judgment without unnecessary process
Clients work directly with the person doing the engineering, planning, and advising.
Maintainable systems
Implementation that respects constraints and reduces risk.
Teaching mindset
Pairing, review, and workshops that leave the team stronger.
