History

In 2006, the project started as a private exercise in programming of Jan Kundrát. As a part of his studies, Trojitá became a topic of the author's bachelor and master's theses, making a debut in 2009. In 2010, Jan was briefly contracted to work on Trojitá for a system integrator, but the project was cancelled for external reasons. After Jan's graduation, the governance of the project opened up and Trojitá moved beneath the KDE umbrella. As a part of the KDE community, Trojitá gained new contributors and was translated into thirty-three languages. Since 2012, Trojitá took part in two rounds each of Google Code-In as well as Google Summer of Code competitions. As of 2016, Trojitá includes contributions from more than sixty developers.
