👋 Hi Product Hunt! I’m Vlad — 15 Years Making Windows Apps, Sharing FTPie, TabChart & New Tools

👋 Hi Product Hunt! I’m Vlad — a Windows desktop developer with ~15 years of experience.

I’ve spent most of my career building native desktop apps because I genuinely love the feeling of creating fast, practical software that people actually use every day.

My main project is FTPie — a paid app (with a free version available) that I’m trying to turn into a sustainable indie business. It’s my long-term focus and the project I’m continuously grinding on.

Along the way, I realized that many internal tools and components I built for FTPie could become useful standalone products. That’s how my second project was born:

📈 TabChart — a completely free crypto multi-charting app for traders who want powerful charts without clutter or subscriptions.

I also have another app coming soon, and my plan for 2026 is simple:
keep improving FTPie while releasing several focused desktop tools built from the ecosystem I’ve been developing.

No AI hype.
No trendy buzzwords.
Just solid Windows apps solving real problems.

If you’re curious about current or upcoming projects, feel free to follow me — I plan to be active here on PH, share progress, lessons from indie development, and future launches.

Happy to meet everyone here 🙌
