About

A one-person studio built on the belief that software should respect people and be worth caring about.

June

June is a software developer, composer, and founder. She's been in love with computers since she was a kid — the kind of kid who installed Linux just to see what happened, who stayed up reading man pages for fun, who has always wanted to do things a different way.

Before starting Asha, she worked across all the major US phone carriers and spent years at Geek Squad — watching people lose everything to Bitlocker, watching scummy practice after scummy practice treat people like targets instead of humans. Every data harvested, every dark pattern, every product that treated its users as a resource to exploit. She saw what disrespect for users looks like up close, and she's been building against it ever since.

She makes music as Junie's Dream: cinematic, atmospheric instrumentals rooted in the same sensibility — careful craft, nothing that doesn't earn its place.

The Studio

Asha means hope. The studio exists to set a new standard — for user respect, for the craft, for what software can feel like when it's made with actual care by a person who gives a damn.

Software doesn't have to be boring and soul-less, designed from the ground up to extract maximum revenue from the people using it. There was an era when software had personality, when the people who made it were proud of it, when you could feel the human on the other side. Asha is a return to that era.

One person. Every decision considered. Nothing ships that doesn't feel right.

Open Source

All of what Asha builds is open source. Not as a marketing position — because it's the honest way to build software people trust. If you can read the code, you don't have to take anyone's word for it.

The source for every open source Asha project lives on Kepr — Asha's own version control platform, itself open source.

Privacy

This site uses Umami, a privacy-respecting open-source analytics tool, to monitor performance — page load times, general traffic patterns. That's it. No individual tracking, no fingerprinting, no data stored anywhere about you as a person.

If you don't want even that, a tracker blocker will work just fine. We don't chase signals we're not supposed to have.
