## Our Journey From Proprietary To Open Source

For four years, we navigated through proprietary software, but now, we're embracing open source with [Enatega](https://enatega.com/). This shift marks a significant milestone in our journey. Enatega offers several advantages:

1. **Streamlined Setup**: Say goodbye to convoluted processes. With Enatega, setting up your project is a breeze. With just a few commands, you can have the project up and running on your local system.

2. **Flexibility and Adaptability**: Enatega transcends platforms, offering adaptability for testing on both emulators and physical devices. Its cross-platform compatibility ensures seamless functionality across various environments.

3. **Open Source Advantages**: Dive into live demonstrations, comprehensive documentation, and instructional videos elucidating the software's features. Navigating through the software landscape becomes uncomplicated with Enatega.

## Introduction

Our journey into open source began as a side project at [Ninjas Code](https://ninjascode.com/), a software development agency, four years ago. Initially, we aimed to address deficiencies in local food delivery applications, but our vision expanded. Recognizing our marketing limitations compared to industry giants, we shifted our focus to assisting others in launching their delivery services. Leveraging our development expertise, we made the strategic decision to open source our app repository. This move gained significant traction without extensive marketing efforts, cultivating a vibrant community of contributors, and providing invaluable technical experience to over 100 startups.
