I'm the developer behind BAUK, working on these projects in my spare time between family life with my wife
and four kids. I've always enjoyed coding and building things, so this is where I channel that
passion—creating applications that hopefully make someone's day a little easier, more organized, or just more
enjoyable.
Being a Principle AWS DevOps Engineer by day, I have a deep appreciation for well-architected systems and
scalable solutions.
I apply this knowledge to my personal projects, ensuring they are built on solid foundations.
This means that you can expect the same level of security and reliability in my applications as you would from
enterprise-grade software.
If however you are intending to use any of my applications in a business-critical environment, please do get
in touch so we can discuss your needs (see the Contact section).
When I'm not working on BAUK projects, I'm usually spending time with my family or exploring new technologies
and development techniques. These apps are my way of combining hobby and purpose.
The Story Behind BAUK
BAUK is founded and maintained by Kuba Jasko.
This isn't a large company or a venture-backed startup—it's simply one person who enjoys coding and creating
tools that others might find useful.
Bauk started as a personal project to experiment with web technologies and build applications that solved individual problems.
Over time, it grew into a collection of apps that I decided to share with the world.
Each application reflects my interests and the challenges I've encountered, whether it's organizing competitions or sharing stories.
There are lots of other applications created that did not make the cut, but maybe one day they will.
Current Projects
Tallio - A web application designed for running and managing competitions. Whether you're
organizing a raffle, giveaway, or contest, Tallio provides the tools you need to create fair and transparent
competitions. Users can participate, track entries, and manage winners all in one place.
Tadek Website - A digital collection showcasing stories written by Tadek Jasko. This
platform serves as an archive and reading space for creative writing, making the stories easily accessible to
readers who want to explore them.
The Development Approach
As a solo developer working in spare time, the focus is on building tools that are practical and functional
rather than perfect. Each application is developed iteratively, with improvements and fixes made based on
real-world usage and feedback.
The development process prioritizes getting working features into users' hands rather than endless planning.
This approach means applications launch sooner and evolve based on actual needs rather than assumptions.
What to Expect
BAUK will continue to grow as time allows. New features, improvements, and potentially new applications will
be added when inspiration strikes and time permits. This is a labor of love, not a full-time endeavor, so
updates may come in bursts rather than on a fixed schedule.
If you find these tools useful, that's wonderful. If you have suggestions or encounter issues, feedback is
always welcome. The goal is to create things that help people, even if in small ways, and to enjoy the process
of building along the way.
One of our best apps at the moment is Tallio
