From Commodore 64 to native macOS apps - hi from Istanbul

Hi everyone, I’m Özkan from Istanbul.

I’ve been writing code since the Commodore 64 days, so I’m probably a little too obsessed with performance, memory usage and keeping things simple.

These days I mostly work with Laravel/PHP, Linux servers and native macOS apps. I run a small software company and spend most of my time building products and internal tools.

One of the things I’ve been working on lately is SQLOZ, a native macOS database manager built with Swift and AppKit.

I joined Product Hunt mostly to meet other makers, discover interesting tools, and learn from how people here build and launch products.

Looking forward to meeting people here and seeing what everyone is building.
