<section>
<p><em>Achernar</em> is a small, indie development studio based in the Capital Region of Denmark. 🇩🇰</p>
<br>
<p>We develop open-source software, including video games and more productive software. We work with embedded systems as well as hosted ones.</p>
</section>
<h1 id="anchor.vision">vision</h1>
<section>
<p>The goal of <em>Achernar</em> is to promote modern and robustly written open-source projects and alike.</p>
<br>
<p>In other words, our vision is to develop a human and clean industry and community for technology.</p>
<br>
<p>Currently, our roadmap is as follows:</p>
<br>
<ul>
<li>
<p>Complete the webservice before <em>autumn, 2024</em></p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Release our first game by <em>2024</em></p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Release early-access for Bowshock on Steam by <em>2025</em></p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Restructure to a normal sole proprietorship</p>
</li>
</ul>
</section>
<h1 id="anchor.team">team</h1>
<section>
<p>As <em>Achernar</em> is currently registered as a <em>PMV</em> (lesser sole proprietorship), <em>Gabriel Bjørnager Jensen</em> is currently our only member.</p>

<section>
<p><em>Achernar</em> was founded in the summer of 2024 by I, <em>Gabriel Bjørnager Jensen</em>.</p>
<br>
<p>Our domain – <code>achernar.dk</code> – was already registered in the winter of 2021, at that time being used for hosting on-line source code repositories. This was, however, quickly outsourced to <code><a href="https://mandelbrot.dk">mandelbrot.dk</a></code> after I had managed to secure that domain.</p>
<br>
<p><code>achernar.dk</code> was then, in the mean time, used for hosting a few look-up references. This mostly served as my own notes for school – mainly mathematics, physics, and chemistry – but quickly grew unorganised and umaintained, although I did have plans to expand the lexicon.</p>
<br>
<p>The idea of a company had started in the spring of 2020. At that time it would've been named after the binary system <em>Sheliak</em> (Bayer: <code>β Lyræ</code>). But it was this idea that evolved into <em>Achernar</em>.</p>
