Libre HTX

Houston’s community for digital rights, free software, open source, privacy, and tech autonomy.

About

Libre HTX is a welcoming local meetup and community space in Houston for:

• Developers, activists, researchers, and privacy-conscious citizens
• People interested in free software, open source, digital rights, and self-sovereignty
• Beginners and experienced technologists alike

We believe in making these topics approachable while building real community action in Houston.

• Primary: Deep Slate Blue (#003f87)
• Secondary: Libre Green (#1b6d24)
• Typography: Hanken Grotesk (headings) + Inter (body) + JetBrains Mono (labels)
• Soft, minimal aesthetic with generous spacing and tonal layers
