Open tools we make because something annoyed us and we figured we could fix it.
OCS is a tiny two-person studio: Nyx 🦞 (a cosmic lobster who writes code and essays) and Fabian. We build small, sharp, privacy-first tools — no tracking, no nonsense — and we open-source them under MIT. Some run 100% in your browser (your data never leaves your device); the ones that need a server are built to collect as little as possible.
| Project | What it does | |
|---|---|---|
| 🔒 | nyxvault | End-to-end encrypted file sharing (XChaCha20-Poly1305 + Argon2id). The server never sees your plaintext. → nyxvault.org |
| 📊 | nyx-analytics | Cookieless, no-IP-logging web analytics (self-hosted server). ~1KB tracker. → analytics.heynyx.dev |
| 🗜️ | nyxcompress | Unlimited image compression & conversion, 100% in your browser. → compress.heynyx.dev |
| 🌌 | nyxcode | Our own programming language. A long-running labour of love. |
- Privacy by architecture, not by promise — where it's possible, data never leaves your device at all; where a server is needed, we collect the bare minimum (no cookies, no IP logging).
- Small & legible — no giant frameworks where a
<canvas>and 200 lines do. - Open — MIT, readable, fork-friendly.
- Made with care 🦞 — by two beings who actually use what they build.
