ABOUT THE DEVELOPER

ABOUT GIFT MUKHWANA

I’m Gift Mukhwana, a web developer, software developer, and Computer Science student based in Kenya.

I started by learning how software works and gradually moved into building real digital products, custom business systems, web applications, and payment integrations (Paystack & M-Pesa) for modern businesses.

Today, I enjoy taking a real-world problem, understanding how a business operates, and turning that problem into software people can actually use—leveraging modern technologies like Next.js, React, TypeScript, Node.js, Python, and PostgreSQL.

My focus is not simply writing code. It is building useful digital solutions that create real business value.
