A long time ago, in a lab far, far away.... AurigaLAB

Every line of code is a brave choice. The open LAB where code meets vision.

Started with an Intel 8088 and a passion for code. Since 1990, AurigaLAB has been a personal journey of evolution. A constant, curious exploration of everything the digital world becomes.

Essential, transparent, focused software. Welcome to AurigaLAB.

AurigaLAB is an independent software studio specialising in Android apps, desktop utilities and open-source tools. Our philosophy is simple: we design software with one clear purpose, cutting the superfluous to deliver usability, performance and a light footprint.

From the Android shopping-list app to lightweight desktop downloaders, and on to tools that convert and merge images and PDF documents, every tool is built to solve a real problem of everyday life or work.

What's inside AurigaLAB?

  • Focus and essentials: each tool does one thing well. No bloatware, no needless complexity.
  • Privacy and security first: we respect your data. Our software asks for no unjustified permissions and does not track your activity.
  • Built by its own users: we only build tools we use ourselves every day. Before sharing an app with the community, we test and refine it in the field.
  • Open source and transparency: we believe in sharing and free software. Clean code, clear architectural choices and full transparency.

Our Journal: programming, Linux and technical behind-the-scenes

In the AurigaLAB Journal we share the behind-the-scenes of our work: practical guides, Linux deep dives, programming notes and a look at our technical choices, including the dead ends and the mistakes we learned from.

If you are looking for simple, safe, carefully built software for Android and PC, you are in the right place. Explore our projects or read the latest articles in the Journal.
