Ukrainian Defense Tech is not just R&D in the rear, but a continuous race to get ahead. While the enemy tries to pressure with numbers and meaty assaults, our engineers seek technological advantage: disassemble Russian «Eagles», analyze enemy communications and redesign their products right during serial production. We spoke with representatives of three Ukrainian MilTech manufacturers: Pavel Kosolapkin (CTO and co-founder of Frontline Robotics), Valery Zarubin (co-founder of BlueBird Tech), and Oleg Fedoryshin (R&D director of DevDroid). They told us how Ukrainian weapons manufacturers get enemy trophies, what is really surprising about Russian «analogs», and why the life cycle of a successful product in this war is sometimes measured in weeks.

Designer Denis Osadchy has created an open-source plugin that connects Claude Code to Figma via a local Python server.

Over the past few months at Gart Solutions, we have been hearing the same phrase from clients more and more often: «we don’t need a backend from scratch, we already have everything on Supabase.» At first, this sounded like an exception. Now it’s almost a standard answer to the first technical question about the project’s architecture. If you work in Ukrainian outsourcing or product development and haven’t noticed this shift yet, I advise you to take a closer look. It is changing the very structure of demand for backend development, and how quickly the industry reacts to it will determine who wins the next few years of competition for international clients.

Every year, 2 million documents pass through the Kernel system. A few years ago, each of them existed on paper — and could be lost, have incorrectly entered data or discrepancies in the weight of the goods, which caused a delay in the entire delivery. Today, 65% of these documents exist only in digital form. And drivers who once transferred pieces of paper at weigh stations now sign consignment notes on their phones. For several years, Kernel has been actively implementing electronic waybills (eWBLs) in all chains of transportation of sunflower seeds, grain, oil, etc. This is not just a technical feature, but a real change in the culture of document flow in the agricultural sector. The goal was simple: less paper, more transparency and speed in the formation and accounting of primary documents.
