Who we are
A small effort, in the open.
We'll be straight with you. Ancecode is early. There isn't a team page full of headshots yet, because there isn't a big team yet. What we have is a clear picture of where we're headed and a real intention to do it without exaggerating any of it.
What we're about
Ancecode builds software for South Sudan. Offline-first, multilingual, made for the way the country actually is rather than the way software usually assumes the world to be. We start with one project, Junub, and a roadmap behind it that we keep sealed until the work is real.
We speak as “we” here on purpose. This is an organisation with a mission, not a cult of personality. As people join, this page will say so honestly, with real names and real roles, not invented ones.
“The vast amount of potential South Sudan and it's people hold is extraordinary. Just thinking about it gives me sleepless nights and this comes with great worry and dismay at the sight of letting this potential rot and waste the blood and sweat shed by our ancestors and patriots, as well as hardening the path that the future generations have to tread.”
Founder, Ancecode
Help build it
Engineers and designers, especially South Sudanese and diaspora. Mentors for the Builders' Circle. Funders who want their money to do something specific. Advisors who know things we don't. There is a place for all of that.
