Why I built it

We can still turn this around.

I'm Jérôme, 44, the developer behind Helios. After years spent across the whole stack, backend, frontend, 3D, games, embedded, I wanted to build something that truly matters to me.

A card won't save the planet, I know. But guilt and numbers nobody reads change no one: we change when we can finally see what's happening in our own home. That's the whole point of Helios: make energy visible, tangible, even beautiful, so that acting stops being a chore and becomes the obvious thing to do.

Helios is free and open source, built by a single person, in full transparency.
