Technology is a part of everything we do
Our professional lives are deeply intertwined with software, yet most of us don't fully understand it. Almost everything we do in our work involves software. Whether you work in a tech company, a bank, a financial services firm, or healthcare, chances are you spend a significant part of your day using software. But let's face it, software is complicated and technical concepts can be overwhelming.
What’s Modern Software?
Modern Software is a newsletter and blog run by Manish Sahajwani, a software consultant with over 20 years of experience developing software and working with clients. Modern Software was started with the belief that anyone can become tech-savvy. We provide a community that offers engaging, simple explanations of technical concepts that are useful for your day-to-day job and fun to learn. Our content and community are designed for professionals who interact with software as part of their jobs, but who may not have a technical background.
How Will You Benefit?
Our mission is to help you understand how software works, learn the common technical jargon and become comfortable discussing software and software problems with your team and others. This will help you:
Identify and solve problems in your work more quickly and effectively
Have smarter communication with your technical colleagues
Have a better understanding of the software used by your company and/or sold by your company
Provide better support to your customers especially if you sell a software or software-related service.
Improve your career prospects with a better understanding of software and tools
Get better at analyzing and interpreting data, allowing for more informed decision-making
Become more adaptable to change and able to work more effectively with new software tools.
Whether you're interested in learning about APIs, Cloud computing, programming languages, or other technical concepts, our community provides simple, jargon-free explanations that will help you become more productive and informed.
If you work at a tech company, bank, financial services firm, healthcare company, or any institution that makes heavy use of software, Modern Software is the perfect community for you.
Best suited for non-technical founders, sales and marketing professionals, designers, product managers, HR, operations, content creators, lawyers and other non-technical professionals who interact with software as part of their jobs, but who may not have a technical background.

Our goal is that you come for the content but stay for the community.
