Andrew Truckle
Hi, I’m the developer behind TruckleSoft. This is my little corner of the web where I share software projects, tools, and ideas I've built—sometimes out of necessity, sometimes just for fun. Most of what you'll find here is experimental, quirky, or oddly specific, but all of it reflects my curiosity and love for programming.
Feel free to explore, tinker, and maybe even find something useful or entertaining along the way.

Laptop malfunction.
Having been to local computer shop who couldn’t find the fault causing my laptop to malfunction, was beginning to think I would have to buy a new one. Heard about Andrew and he was able to solve the problem very quickly. Very grateful that he found the fault and explained why it had happened.
Essential Alarm Tool for Screen-Focused Work
I recently downloaded Alarm Clock by TruckleSoft and found it to be a simple yet effective tool. It’s easy to install, user friendly, and offers a nice selection of alarm ringtones. It’s ideal for desktop users who spend long hours at the computer and need gentle reminders. Best of all, it’s free to use making it a practical addition to any productivity setup.
