Different camera perspectives have been updated to the game. Switch between them by clicking the camera icon in the game. https://okadahustle.netlify.app/Chylo: Why is the camera angel so bad, and no way to change it? I had to stop playing after 5 minutes |

With time, more features would be added and eventually a standalone app. Would work on the sound issue 😊.Thanks for the feedback Henry. HenryStarlife: Love the concept and humour. With more updates, I believe major changes could be made. The bugs I noticed is the sound, add option to turn off all sound not just music alone. |

Yeah, it's been a while since I've done any updates or maintenance on the site. I basically consider it a legacy project of mine at this point 😁 PrinceNEMEREM: Thinking for too long.

Gaming › Okada Hustle Game. Nigerian Made Game by davidaluu(op): 3:05pm On Oct 14 |
A while back, I stumbled on a car game based on the popular yellow buses(danfo) in Lagos and then another Nigerian as well decided to create a The SIMS like version of Lagos called Lagos Life. It's really fun seeing technology localized for our own particular use case. Decided to join the train and make a game based on an Okada hustler 😁 Tell me what you think about the game. Try it out, it's browser based and free. https://okadahustle.netlify.app/

Thank you. Unsplash and existing LLMs were used. A custom orchestration algorithm was deployed to piece the two together michellecorneli: Undertaking such complex technical projects solo is a massive undertaking that certainly deserves great respect from the entire programming community. I’ll definitely give your search engine a try this weekend when I have a bit more free time. By the way, which specific language model did you use under the hood or did you train your own algorithm entirely from scratch? |

This is basically a blend of those things you mentioned actually. The animation to demonstrate how and instructions to follow. It's just an MVP of course. The goal was basically that the app could instantly create an animated explained for any recipe instantly in chat but that's a hard technical challenge to overcome so think of this as proof of concept. Appreciate the feedback. Alphabyte3: People don't like visual demonstration on culinary they prefer short videos with quality procedures. If you got all recipes in the world the app would be worth millions. |

For building APIs, I still prefer python. And most companies even OpenAI use it for their API infrastructure, Ruby is a close second. Stephen0mozzy: Python industry standards keh. Or you Mean Java and .NET - JavaScript (ExpressJS/NestJS) even have higher popularity in the API world than python. |
Programming › Re: Who Has Built An API From Scratch Before? by davidaluu(op): 8:57pm On Jul 19 |
Favor of JavaScript for web applications in general yes but for APIs, python is actually the industry standard. That's what the big dogs actually use Stephen0mozzy: I'm always in favor of JavaScript ecosystem. But for core python devs, they'll not chose any other language stack. |
Programming › Re: Who Has Built An API From Scratch Before? by davidaluu(op): 6:44pm On Jul 19 |
So you'd say python is the better tech stack choice then? Thinking of using it too but with FastAPI framework. Already built projects with it Stephen0mozzy: It's called full stack development 😁. I built my first API using ExpressJS + MongoDB. I've explored flask too and Django just passively. |
Programming › Who Has Built An API From Scratch Before? by davidaluu(op): 2:55pm On Jul 19 |
Most of us devs have integrated an API (application programming interface) in our applications one way or another for faster time to market or functionality. APIs for things like weather, AI, like Openai, Google Maps or Stripe for payments. How many of us have actually tired to build one out before? That's what I'm currently working on. Building out my own API for a particular use case. Let me know if you've built an API yourself and the reason why and probably also the tech stack used. Let's connect

No need to afford AI. People need to install Local On device LLMs that can run without internet connection like Ollama. Deepseek variation is also available. You just need a good computer to be able to handle the inferences. But yes, go and learn the basics of programming , it'll help alot in your journey Cybaghost: Go and learn programming from scratch. You soon won’t even be able to afford the ai. Before a $20 OpenAI subscription was enough for me to build 3 apps with codex but now I pay over $100 monthly for same amount of work. In the next 6months AI won’t be ready cheap and available as it used to be because the companies giving you the AI are running at a loss each time you use their service. This is why Claude code had introduced a lot of restrictions and rate limits.
Also without programming knowledge you won’t even be able to effectively build and manage a good product. AI is good for starting new projects not managing a project( you need programming knowledge to effectively use ai on an existing project else you break the project) with existing data and thousands of users. |

I wouldn't say it's time wasting. It's actually kinda refreshing especially now when the world is leaning towards AI. I do write code manually once in a while to still keep in touch with the basics. DrabeeyIsBack: AI can do virtually everything a developer can Do. Just know how to question it's intelligence and don't be dumb too.
So if you ask me, writing codes in this age is just time wasting. Get a good AI to help you with that, provide it good ideas and fuse your ideas in a workflow. Lobatan.
Customise your life to suit whatever you're busy building, take your time and learn on mistakes you will definitely make |
Programming › Re: What Mobile App Are You Currently Building? by davidaluu(op): 4:39pm On May 08 |
Learn the basics and fundamentals of programming then try to build one project on your own without tutorials. The best way to master programming is by building or at least attempting to build projects and applications then when you get stuck, you debug or search for solutions. That's how most people do it. OAkanni001: Please, I'm not a dev but my dream is to become a solo developer who build SaaS products. Do you think with the recent advancement in AI, I don't need a programming background? If No, what are the necessary things I need to know and how long will it takes?
I've asked AI similar question got response but I need to seek professional clarification.
