Honest help for
people who need it most.

The person behind the screen

I'm Champ, a 55-year-old self-taught developer from Durban, South Africa. When the 2020 lockdown took my livelihood, I did what I've always done — I adapted. I taught myself to code using free resources and I discovered that technology can be a tool for helping people, not just making money.

I believe that everyone deserves access to technology support, regardless of their budget. That's why I offer affordable remote repair services and build open-source tools that anyone can use for free.

Every project on this site is built on a laptop powered by solar energy, in a home without electricity or running water. Not because it's romantic — because it's real. This is my life and I'm building something meaningful from it.
