Concept

Jaanga.github.io is a GitHub organization with source code at github.com/jaanga.

The name 'Jaanga' was chosen for this effort because it sounds jazzy, it is short and search results indicate uniqueness. Similarly the concept of Jaanga is to be a place to help you write software that is fun, easy and gets things done.

Mission

To supply scripts that are useful, written in code that is simple to understand
To help people get into science, technology, engineering and math (STEM )
To help designers, engineers, scientists - non-programmers - create new types of domain-specific apps
To utilize the new technologies being made available in browsers to create new visual and aural interactions
To supply all code as free open source software( FOSS )
To visualize everything in 3D

Vision

So much of what people do is informed by the tradition of paper. Let's disrupt some of those notions
Let's make magic happen - and also know what's happening behind the curtain
