Is There Any Major Website In The World Entirely Developed By A Nigerian? by hunter4life: 10:16am On Jan 29, 2017 |
Just curious. I’m not asking about websites created using open source software like WordPress, Joomla or free forum software. I’m referring to any website built on propriety software actually designed and written by any Nigerian from ground up? www.naijamotherland.com was designed and written from the ground up by a Nigerian-American and I am very curious to know if there are any others out there. |

"major websites" (most websites really) aren't built by a single person |

hunter4life:I wrote Fc naija.com & 366football.com from ground up. Although Fc naija was a WordPress site, I recoded it, removed all the styling and the only thing retained was the database which I later changed the structure, even the admin was removed for a custom built one by me . 366football is a Livescores site that fetches feeds from an European feed provider all custom built too. I learnt how to code from scratch, including mvc & oop. Unfortunately most naija programmers are lazy, so they use either WordPress or one "quick tool". I know of few people who can code big stuffs from scratch. The rest are just "fast food" programmers. ![]() ![]() |

Fc naija.com & 366football.com are built on WordPress software. But it looks like you've done a lot of customization, which is good. |

jboy01: Good answer. But has a Nigerian developed a framework yet or everyone is still using frameworks written by other people? |

My question was actually for the popular, high traffic websites. This is where your web application or software is truly tested. When it is under a load of stress from many simultaneous users; preferably hundreds of thousands of users. Is there 1 website that has been written by a Nigerian capable of doing that? Hopefully with the information technology age, we will not fall into the same quagmire we did where we have a lot of so-called engineers but no one has created a car that can move, or a plane that can fly, or develop electrical power without getting raw materials from abroad, etc. |
