Fellow builder here 👋
I'm building DevPing in public —
an API hub for African developers.
Solving a problem I kept hitting myself:
Global APIs don't care about:
→ Nigerian bank codes
→ MTN/Airtel/Glo detection
→ BVN/NIN format validation
→ Local African identity tools
So I'm building them myself.
Phase 3 of 15 done already.
Auth module is live.
Here's what makes it different:
→ Built specifically for Africa
not adapted from a global tool
→ Simple enough for a beginner
to integrate in 5 minutes
→ Free tier that's actually useful

Final saga loading 🎓🔥
Good morning guys,
I came across a flyer posted by a friend about a car sales business.
As a web developer who loves creating solutions for business owners, I decided to take initiative — I saved the flyer and built a website for the business.
Take a look:

I’d really appreciate your feedback 🙏
Do you think I should present this to the business owner, or use it to reach out to other car dealers?
Behind every clean UI is a developer who struggled with bugs for hours.
This journey isn’t easy… but it’s worth it.
From frontend to backend, I’m building my path one project at a time.
Happy Sunday 🌱
