What successful, widely-used project was created entirely by one lone genius?

This position is a little oxymoronic since anything successful and widely-used must benefit from the non-zero amount of direct and indirect community feedback. Every project exists in relation to others and if one is superior in some way it's often because the creator decided to improve on something they liked or disliked in another system.
