About

An inventor is a man who asks "Why?" of the universe
and lets nothing stand between the answer and his mind

Hello, my name is Denis Ryzhkov

Whyolet is the brand of my products:

• "Why?" stands for reasoning, thinking, inventing
• Violet is my favorite color, the color of unconventional

Two violet question marks were merged into a sign,
suggesting infinity of what is possible
