An engineering
studio made to last.

( Who we are — 2026 )

We're a multidisciplinary team of engineers, designers, and tinkerers based in Sri Lanka — building products and systems that operate quietly, scale predictably, and stay alive for years after launch.

Continents served

Long-term collaborations with founders, CTOs, and operations leaders worldwide.

How we think

Three things we refuse to compromise on.

01 — Engineering

Build things that last.

We're not chasing trends. We're choosing tools, patterns, and architectures that survive turnover, scale changes, and new team members three years from now.

Long-term thinking
02 — Honesty

No theatre, no surprises.

Status updates that mean something. Timelines that hold. Trade-offs explained in plain English. If something will slip, you'll know first — not later.

Transparent process
03 — Craft

Pick up the fix ourselves.

Whether it's a third-party bug, an undocumented API, or a corner case nobody planned for — we lean in. The job ends when it actually works.

Engineering ownership
The stack

A tool kit shaped by shipping — not by hype.

We pick technologies for what they survive, not what they trend. Below — the stack we reach for most often, plus what's emerging in the lab.

The road so far

Twelve years, one steady direction.

2014
The studio is founded.
LeafyCode begins as a two-person engineering team in Colombo, taking on web platforms for early-stage SaaS founders.
2013
Mobile practice opens.
First production iOS and Android apps shipped. The team grows to seven, all senior engineers.
2016
ERP & enterprise systems.
Engagement with our first multi-role enterprise client — establishing what becomes our long-running ERP practice.
2019
The Lab is born.
An internal R&D division kicks off — focused on IoT, robotics, and applied computer vision for industry use cases.
2022
Drones in the field.
First custom industrial drones deployed in agriculture pilots. We expand the engineering floor to accommodate hardware.
2026
Now — and what's next.
Active in 4 continents, a 19-person studio, with confidential AR and IoT products in late-stage development. Booking Q3 – Q4 2026.

Bring us the hard part.

Whether it's a brand-new product, a stalled rewrite, or a system that's outgrown its first architecture — we'd love to hear about it.
