GS Gushi Studio Apps, tools, and software work by Bash.

Independent software studio

Gushi Studio builds thoughtful apps, practical tools, and sharp software work.

A content-first studio site for products, projects, and writing by Bash. Static-first, low-maintenance, and designed to feel calm, polished, and useful.

Studio focus

Products
Mac utilities, App Store products, and software with a strong point of view.
Approach
Static-first architecture, structured content, and low ongoing operational overhead.
Writing
Product notes, shipping lessons, and small observations from building software independently.
