Data

companies get from data/companies.yaml file Technologies could be taken from data/technologies.yaml, but Beaver wordpress has a custom layout (probably manually created), so you can't just dump them as is because the design will be different. After moving to a sane theme, feel free to use data/technologies.yaml for it. Look how companies are used and make similar.
