Hi, I'm Deljo. I built Getter, a private meal logging app that helps people stay consistent with food habits.
Getter is built with permanence in mind. Independent by design, it supports science-backed weight loss and long-term habits without urgency, distraction, or dependence on trends. The goal isn't scale at all costs, but usefulness that endures. Something people return to, quietly, every day.
