Here's A Bit of What I've Worked On
Selected projects showcasing my approach to design and development
UniHub - Discover & Create University Events
I engineered UniHub, an event discovery and community platform for university campuses across Nigeria and Africa, using a Next.js, TypeScript, and Tailwind CSS frontend backed by a Node.js and Express server. Data is managed through MongoDB, with Redis layered in for caching and fast session handling, so students can browse events, RSVP, and manage their profiles without lag even as usage scales across 50+ universities. The backend is deployed on Pxxl, giving the platform reliable VPS hosting to run consistently under real traffic. On the media and payments side, I integrated Cloudinary to handle storage and delivery of event banners and community images, keeping visual content fast and reliable across devices. I also set up Paystack to manage secure ticketing and payments, letting organizers create paid events and collect revenue directly through the platform. To improve the onboarding experience, I implemented Shepherd.js to guide new users through a step by step product tour when they first sign up, along with additional front end tooling to support smoother notifications and interaction flows. The result is a fast, mobile friendly platform where students can discover concerts, tech meetups, cultural festivals, and workshops, connect with campus communities, and manage everything from event creation to attendance in one place.

Folio Portfolio Template Generator
I engineered Folio, a portfolio building platform for developers and creatives, using a TypeScript, Next.js, and Tailwind CSS frontend paired with a Node.js and Express backend, and MongoDB for data storage and authentication. The platform gives users a live, no code editor where they can drag and drop sections, switch between 30+ themes in real time, and publish to a custom domain without touching a line of code. A core feature is native GitHub integration, which pulls in real contribution data to power live streak counters and contribution calendars directly on a user's public portfolio. I also built out an analytics dashboard so users can track page views, unique visitors, and referrer sources, giving them visibility into which platforms (Discord, GitHub, LinkedIn, Twitter) are driving traffic to their profile. To support discovery and sharing, I implemented rich Open Graph embeds so portfolio links render as full previews when shared in Discord, Slack, or social platforms, along with an SEO optimised public portfolio page. The platform also includes a template marketplace with multiple starting themes (Minimal, Editorial, Lavender, Cream), a tiered pricing model with free and Pro plans, and a dashboard experience that lets users manage projects, experience, design, and social links from a single place.
