I built this for fun, and to contribute something useful to fellow keepers. Here’s how it all started:
Timeline
- 2019: Discovered a passion for exotic arthropods and basic code.
- 2020: Stepped away from the hobby to explore engineering and trade work.
- 2024: Started the Xethrapod project with a close friend, forming a prototype.
- 2025: Went public with the site and co-founded CEC to build out tools for keepers.
