HystWare started out in mid 2005 as a small company that deals with retail software and still does to date. We manage a popular recreational software package called Mines And Minerals used by hobbyist and professional prospectors, hikers, historians and outdoor enthusiasts. Jeremy Hiestand the owner of HystWare and developer of Mines And Minerals has a long history in programming software to include more then 10 years as a consultant in website development and maintenance, industrial control programming in various languages for computers and HMI's, industrial control and automation programming.

During this time we were approached by many businesses / customers and asked to develop applications that they have long dreamed of, for either personal use or to sale at a retail level.

After the praises we received from our efforts we decided to branch off an create a new division of HystWare that deals with custom programming.
