Concept

Jaanga.github.io is a GitHub organization with source code at github.com/jaanga.

The name 'Jaanga' was chosen for this effort because it sounds jazzy, it is short and search results indicate uniqueness. Similarly the concept of Jaanga is to be a place to help you write software that is fun, easy and gets things done.

Mission

  • To supply scripts that are useful, written in code that is simple to understand
  • To help people get into science, technology, engineering and math (STEM )
  • To help designers, engineers, scientists - non-programmers - create new types of domain-specific apps
  • To utilize the new technologies being made available in browsers to create new visual and aural interactions
  • To supply all code as free open source software( FOSS )
  • To visualize everything in 3D

Vision

  • So much of what people do is informed by the tradition of paper. Let's disrupt some of those notions
  • Let's make magic happen - and also know what's happening behind the curtain
