DIY Software: How New Tools Are Turning Ideas into Home-Made Personalized Apps
Today, most software is centralized and controlled by big platforms, but a new wave of DIY tools is putting the power back where it belongs: with you and your community. In this session, I’ll dive into how anyone can create personalized, home-made apps designed specifically for small groups—whether for you, family, friends, or a community. These tools make it easy, affordable, and private to build apps that are customized, secure, and truly yours: software crafted with love and care, free from the oversight of large corporations. It’s time to make tech personal again, for you and those close to you.
