We build useful, productive, and educational tools for science and technology —
especially for the craft of software engineering.
Things you can open in your browser right now, free:
- KubeQuest — realistic, part-time study plans and progress trackers for the CKA and CKAD Kubernetes certifications, with domain-weighted readiness signals and in-browser skill checks. → kubequest.org
- Kubetopia — learn Kubernetes by saving a cartoon 3D town where buildings are nodes and glowing crates are pods. Real
kubectlcommands, story-driven CKA and CKAD campaigns. → play.kubequest.org - Scrum Suite — real-time sprint poker and retro boards for agile teams. No account required, and it works behind corporate firewalls. → scrumsuite.org
- jdkman — manage every JDK on your machine from one place. Discover and register installed JDKs, switch versions from a CLI or a desktop app, and run environment diagnostics. Cross-platform, built in Rust and Tauri.
- Increment-Tracker — see how your team's increment is really going. JQL-defined increments on Jira, story-point-weighted progress, spillover tracking, and burn-up charts. Local-first, read-only, and offline-friendly.
Brewing now, opening up as they're ready:
- Aeris — a VPS developer-ops cockpit. Provision, deploy, monitor, and secure Linux servers from one place, where every operation follows a detect → plan → apply → verify → record lifecycle.
- SBOMForge — a DevSecOps agent that generates SBOMs, scans dependencies for vulnerabilities, and produces compliance-ready reports for modern teams and EU cybersecurity regulations.
- StackPulse — a lightweight VPS agent and ops console for tailing service logs, polling health, and analyzing request traces from any browser.
A research wing is coming to the lab too — expect experiments and write-ups alongside the products.
- Open by default. Most of what we make is open source, and what isn't yet is on its way.
- Free for the community. Where paid plans ever appear, a genuinely useful free tier stays.
- Learning should feel like play. We turn hard topics into games, simulators, and plans you actually want to open.
- Curiosity first. The best tools start with someone asking "wait, why does it work like that?"
Issues, ideas, and pull requests are welcome on any public repository. Each project's README covers how to get it running locally, and each repository carries its own license — check the LICENSE file before reusing code.
Not sure where to start? Open an issue describing what you'd like to see; a good question is as useful to us as a patch.
CuriouserLabs is made by two friends who kept asking "what if…?" until it became an organization.
Questions, ideas, or collaborations — the lab door is always ajar. That's kind of our whole logo.
