Good luck!
What does Juun stand for?

"Juun" is local dialect for the Dutch word "ui", meaning "onion".
Of course good software is build up in layers, like an onion.
An onion is also a vegetable that is grown locally, just like I'm a local developer.
The name in dialect makes it extra local.
So, like an onion, the name has multiple layers of meaning (which is kind of a recursive meaning I guess)
Also, it's VERY hard to find a name that isn't taken and "Juun" did not exist in the CoC register (not even as a name)
All my friends that come from the island think the name is pretty funny, other people ask me what "Juun" is
All in all I'm quite happy with the name, it even works pretty well in English (who probably pronounce it a June or some such, giving it a summer vibe)

Congratulations, and break a leg!

If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.

Yeah, I would never have guessed the meaning of your company's name in a million years.
Once you get your company website up and running, you may want to put that in your company profile section.
Anyhow, I am happy for you. You are young and motivated with lots of ambition. This is a very good time in your life now to strike while the iron is hot, stay focused, and follow your dreams.
Cheers, and again, the best of luck to you.

No, I'm not leaving here - I'm retiring today I've been programming since 1967 (high school), and it's time.

Congratulations.
Based on the feedback I keep getting, you should now expect to get a lot busier - not less.
