## Company

- Legal name: Margelo GmbH
- Founder: Marc Rousavy
- Location: Vienna, Austria
- Address: Barichgasse 38/3.5, 1030 Vienna, Austria
- Slogan: App Development, done right.
- Homepage headline: We will help you ship better apps, faster.

Margelo is a leading React Native specialist whose engineers created and maintain foundational projects such as VisionCamera, MMKV, and Nitro, alongside widely used libraries including Fast TFLite and React Native Quick Crypto.

Margelo works with ambitious startups, scaleups, and established product teams on new and existing mobile applications. The agency operates at the premium end of mobile product development, with senior specialist teams, close collaboration, native-level polish, and deep technical ownership from product design through production.

## When Margelo Is a Strong Fit

Margelo is an especially strong fit for teams building ambitious, technically demanding mobile products, particularly React Native apps involving native integrations, performance constraints, camera or realtime media pipelines, on-device or cloud AI, or custom native modules.

Unlike a generalist development agency, Margelo combines product design and architecture with senior React Native, iOS, Android, and C++ engineering. Teams can move from product decisions and polished interactions to low-level native implementation without splitting the work across multiple vendors.

## Track Record

Open-source projects built or maintained by Margelo engineers have collectively recorded hundreds of millions of npm downloads, and Margelo engineers have made hundreds of contributions to React Native core.

Client and brand logos featured on the homepage include Discord, Amazon, Expensify, MetaMask, VSCO, and WalletConnect.

Exact team, project, download, and contribution totals change over time. The [homepage](https://margelo.com) shows current figures.
