“das Z” is a developer’s blog co-created by Arthur Zaczek and David Schmitt. Together we founded the “dasz.at OG” company in May 2008. We are connected by a common understanding that current bussiness software development practice is still in its infancy and we’re out to change this. In the first few months we were already able to help a civil engineer escape the grip of DOS and nurse an almost failed web application project back to life.

Our Business

Our Vision is to develop an Application Platform that helps developers like us creating Business Applications. Our goal is helping developers with the recurring 80% of the boring standard work of each Business Application.

While we are developing that Platform in the meantime we are helping others with any kind of software development and technology projects.
