We build small WordPress plugins properly
TechZigya is a small WordPress shop. We make focused, free plugins and hold them to a standard the ecosystem does not always insist on.
// How we work
Four decisions, made once
These are settled before a line of a plugin gets written, rather than argued about afterwards.
01
One job per plugin
A plugin that tries to do everything ends up doing most of it badly. Ours have narrow scope on purpose. When we are tempted to bolt something on, we ask whether it belongs in a different plugin.
02
Standards first
We build on WordPress’s own APIs, follow the coding standards, and internationalise from the start. That is what makes a plugin survive a core update and behave predictably alongside the forty other plugins on a real site.
03
Accessible because it matters
Keyboard operability, correct ARIA roles, meaning that does not depend on colour, and respect for reduced motion are part of how we build. If a block cannot be used without a mouse, it is not finished.
04
Free means free
GPL licensed and free on as many sites as you like. No feature held back behind a banner, and no licence key to lose.
// The fine print
What “free” means here
It is a word that has been stretched a long way by WordPress plugins. This is what we mean by it.
// Where we are
A small shop in Kathmandu
TechZigya is run out of Kathmandu, Nepal. The plugins are built and maintained by a small team, which is the reason there are three of them rather than thirty, and the reason a bug report reaches the person who wrote the code rather than a queue.
If you are using one of these on a client site and something is in your way, tell us. We would rather hear it than not.
