Software and web development used to be a slow and steady process, but these days developers must rapidly develop new features if they are to keep up with the competition. Coding like this inevitably leads to bugs particularly when done in a rush, and this results in a time-consuming and inefficient testing process.
Whilst many enterprises employ large teams of programmers to keep afloat during rapid feature development, Trunk has recognized the financial and time inefficiencies this causes and has presented a much simpler and concise solution. The company's main product "Check" leverages automation to run formatters, spell checkers, linters, and static analyzers to facilitate a frictionless coding and merging process in C++, GitHub Actions, JS, and other languages.
An early stage company, Trunk has attracted funding from Andreessen Horowitz and is backed by an experienced ex-Uber/Google founding team. They are currently focused on developing their tooling solution to be effective in anything from one-person hobby projects through to 800-person engineering teams.
