Their concept of turning spreadsheet data into usable "apps" seems neat. Everyone wish to turn rows and columns of data into something more meaningful. Stoic aims to do that.

For example, they built a Q&A app using their Stoic platform! All with just 300 lines of code.
But that wasn't all.
I was most amaze at their approach and technology.
Firstly, they like JavaScript a lot. They use great frameworks - node, angular and stuff. Then when there isn't a library that they need, they engineered it! Hence they released formula.js, parseq.js and jsDoc.
And they are never shy to talk about their culture and the tools they use.
When an audience asked about they funding and if they would still be around in the future, this was what Ismael (roughly) said:
We are not worried. We are in our mid-40s. We have wife, kids and mortgage, but we are financially very stable. We can go on for years without earning revenues. No problem.That's some attitude.
