It's an exciting time for us at VIKTOR. After launching our platform in 2016 we are rapidly growing our user base, our team and our developer community. We are hyper-focused to make VIKTOR the low-code development platform for developers, engineers and scientists wanting to automate the boring work and enable them to build awesome products.
