## Educational Mission

Our educational catalog centers on vocabulary foundation (First Words) and visual recall (Memory Play). We are particularly dedicated to the **Tifinagh Initiative**, providing high-quality digital learning resources for the Tamazight language, supporting children and adults in communities across Morocco, Algeria, and the Amazigh diaspora.

## Design Philosophy

All AnMoon products share three principles:
1. **Local-first**: Data stays on the user's device. No surveillance, no server dependency.
2. **Offline-ready**: Full functionality without an internet connection, designed for field and rural environments.
3. **Software with Intention**: Every feature solves a specific, real problem. No bloat.

## Studio Presence

AnMoon operates as a distributed studio with a core engineering base in Marrakech, Morocco. We build for users in North Africa, the Sahel, and diaspora communities in Europe — environments where connectivity is inconsistent, multilingualism is the norm, and privacy is a right, not a premium feature.
