# Raison d'être
Computer science and software development has evolved dramatically crucial in the last decades
for technological advancement and scientific research, consistently posing
new challenges and offering new possibilities to us all.
Facing such challenges and opening new applicative fields had an enormous impact
over our lives as we can testify every day.
Computer science and software development has evolved dramatically the last decades,

possibilities that had an enormous impact over our everyday lives.
Still, computer science is seen by most users as some sort of black magic,
that is better avoided than understood.

On the other side of the field, despite the abundance interesting topics,
institutes and commercial investments, oftentimes, research is heavily
conditioned by external factors -- such as commercial interest,
nation-wide infrastructures, bureaucracy, budget choices, academic interest,
knowledge availability. Similar constraints apply to development time --
