Our Story

NeverNull® began as a startup focused on mobile app development in 2016. Supported by the EXIST startup grant, we developed the MobileUI Framework – the first Java and Kotlin framework for cross-platform app development with a native user interface.

With the founding of NeverNull® GmbH in 2018, we were able to further deepen our development activities and deliver our first customer projects using the MobileUI Framework. During this time, we gained extensive experience in software product development. A software framework requires exceptionally high quality, outstanding documentation, and a certain something to truly enhance developer productivity.

Since 2020, we have been offering software development services built on these foundations, with a strong focus on productivity and software quality. With over 30 years of experience, we help our customers build sustainable and valuable software solutions.
