Made by one indie,
in europe.
wyrm is a one-person studio, run out of Europe. No VC money, no investors to please, no enterprise roadmap, no SSO-as-a-paywall, no spyware analytics watching what you click. Just one developer who wanted a better git client and decided to build it.
That smallness is the point. There’s no growth team steering features toward whatever sells to the Fortune 500. wyrm answers to the people who actually use it — and to nobody else.
What wyrm is
wyrm is a native git client built for jujutsu (jj) — a Git-compatible version control system. It speaks ordinary git repositories, so it works with your existing code on GitHub, GitLab, or anywhere else. It just gives you jj’s far better model for working with history on top.
jujutsu is the most interesting thing to happen to version control in a decade. It drops the staging area, the detached HEAD, the stash — the parts that trip everyone up — and replaces them with a handful of ideas that actually hold together. It fixes the hard parts. wyrm builds the UI that jj deserves: fast, legible, and honest about what’s going on.
The philosophy
Git history is not a problem to be managed. It’s the story of how software became what it is. wyrm’s job is to make that story legible — and to stay out of your way while you write the next chapter.
And it stays on your machine. wyrm is local-first: your code and history aren’t uploaded anywhere to make the app work. More on that on the security page.
Funding
wyrm is funded entirely by users who pay for Pro. No ads, no data brokering, no VC runway burning down to a pivot. If you use wyrm and find it valuable, that’s how you keep it alive — and how it stays accountable to you instead of to a board.
