WinterFest 2015 assembles many of the best and most interesting tools for writing and research available today. These innovative applications bring recent developments in research and advances in engineering to the desktop, addressing many of the most challenging facets of knowledge work. BBEdit defines plain text editing on the Mac, Tinderbox transforms the notebook, Scrivener rethinks the manuscript, DEVONthink reconstructs the repository: each tool is the work of a small design team or a passionate designer, bringing devoted craftsmanship to a field too often dominated by corporate blandness.

More information about WinterFest 2015 offer is available on the official page, artisanalsoftwarefestival.com, as well as on the websites of each of the participating companies.

“No matter what craft you’re pursuing, there is no investment more useful, productive, or gratifying than a set of finely crafted tools and trustworthy reference materials”, reminds us Rich Siegel, Bare Bones Software.

Tinderbox’s Mark Bernstein finds his colleagues a constant source of inspiration: “You don’t discover inspired design in focus groups. Artisanal software is filled with ideas, ambition, and a passion to make things right. Using all these tools together lets our team build better software while engaging the rest of the research community.”

“Our customers love to create something new. And for this, they collect, organize, structure, delete, note, write, and – finally – perfect. With the apps that we have put together for you in this WinterFest, handcrafted by creators for creators, you can do this without the computer getting in the way of your creativity”, says Eric Bohnisch-Volkmann, President of DEVONtechnologies.
