Journey

From Commodore 64 to the cloud

  1. 1989

    First line of code

    I was 8. I stepped into the world of coding with a Commodore 64 — and fell in love with it that very day.

  2. 1999

    Meeting the internet

    The early days of the internet in Turkey. It all began with the mysterious journey of a fax-modem card.

  3. 2002

    Sanalkurs.net

    We founded our free education platform; 200,000 active members learned through our courses.

  4. 2010

    TE Bilişim is founded

    We started building software for news publishers. Our first-generation platform grew all the way to v5.

  5. 2020

    Nova CMS · second generation

    We rewrote our news software from scratch — original code, built to OOP standards.

  6. 2026

    Moving to AWS

    In a fundamental shift, we moved our entire infrastructure to the AWS cloud.

  7. 2027

    ContentyCo · third generation

My story

I sit; we keep 750 sites standing.

I was born with a physical disability, and I use a wheelchair.

Looking back today, I am grateful. Perhaps that is why I spent so many hours at the computer; perhaps that is how I became a developer. The journey that began with a Commodore 64 at the age of 8 brought me here.

To my fellow disabled friends

Discover your untapped talents and step into life. Allah has given every person all the strength they need to stand tall.

Always love the hard way. Everyone loves the easy way — and they are bound to lose.
Abdullah Tekin
