About Us

Welcome to Lefe, a platform created by developers, for developers. At Lefe, we understand the challenges that open-source creators face when it comes to maintaining and growing their projects. While open-source software powers innovation worldwide, funding these projects is often an overlooked aspect.

Lefe was born out of a personal need. As the creator of the widely used QR Code Styling library, I realized that while I was passionate about contributing to the open-source community, the financial aspect of sustaining and improving my project was challenging. I wanted to offer additional features to users and cover my expenses, but there was no straightforward way to monetize my open-source work without compromising its essence.

That’s why I built Lefe—an app designed to help open-source creators like you generate sustainable funding. Our platform provides the tools needed to create and manage paid packages, licenses, and custom plans so that you can focus on building and innovating without the financial stress.

At Lefe, our mission is to enable the open-source community to thrive by bridging the gap between creators and users who value their work. Whether you're an individual developer or a team, we help you unlock the potential of your open-source projects through a seamless funding and monetization process.

We believe in the power of open-source and are committed to supporting the creators who make it all possible. Join us in building a future where open-source projects can not only survive but flourish.

Our Vision

We envision a world where open-source developers are empowered to create freely, without financial barriers. With Lefe, we aim to make the funding process transparent, easy, and fair—so that more creators can bring their ideas to life and continue to contribute to the global open-source ecosystem.
