Exactly.
30million nigerian users is valued over $1.2billion annually by facebook's valuation. Snapchat charges $740million to send adverts to 200million users just for 24hours.

Think abt this

A source told me that Facebook company is going into partnership with some Nigeria telecos and financial institutions.

How far, you don forget my search engine. Although its still work in progress.

That fiddle can be written in jq.

dhtml18:
Nay, i beg to differ, only one person seems to know what he is talking about on this thread (not me mind you). I don't like getting too involved on these matters - i prefer talking with codes.

Oya talk with code.
Whether they call it data binding, it still boils down to Dom manipulation.

Its good he came. At least to show that the market is important to their business.
Its time for use to sit up or be kicked out.

Wtf

HardMirror:

Can't we build a physical forum where developers meet?
What do you think?
Do you know the real reason why Mark was in Nigeria? He was not here to support us. He was here to exploit us.
Nigeria has over 90million people online, but 2go and Eskimi has been more successful in nigeria than facebook... I drop my pen on this. Join the dots together and you wld understand

Dhtml18 is building africacoders.
I hope he finishes soon, and come up with something worthwhile.
African market is still young and fresh for any tech to thrive.
If 2go and eskimi worth better than Facebook means that people are move concerning with their privacy, because these platforms has more leverage on privacy than fb, and they don't require much personal data to use.

I declare this thread re-open, over to you dhtml18

dhtml18:
Recession has caught up with me guys, I am struggling for survival here - I shall soon return to complete Nairaland and to complete our competition.

Angular is a framework, jQuery is a library. Frameworks have their place and libraries have their place. However, there is no question that a good framework has more power in writing an application than a library. That's exactly the point of a framework. You're welcome to write your code in plain JS, or you can add in a library of common functions, or you can add a framework to drastically reduce the code you need to accomplish most things.
All still boils down to vanilla JS under the hood.
Durandal, for example, is a framework built on top of jQuery, Knockout, and RequireJS. Again, jQuery cannot, by itself, provide what Knockout, RequireJS, and the whole framework built on top them can.

Angular is cool, and jq is cooler because, you can always use jquery to achieve almost anything as long as front end is concerned.
Base on millions of plugins out there, jq is not weak and can do anything angular can do.
I have used angular, and most times I mix all to achieve a task.

Abeg who go help me pay for something and how much for naira you go charge per USD.

vankaid:

The confusion that comes with reckless abandon with which these guys roll out different platforms on daily basis is enough to make one not to care.
However, after having to learn Angular "by force" due to an ionic mobile app I had to do, na im I come realize that truly JQuery is very weak.
You might not agree until you expend like 1 or two hours and look into any of these modern JS framework like Angular or Angular2 (at least the one I don try).
Infact I started wondering why I have been using PHP in every part of my application rather than just for REST Api.

When you say jquery is weak can you point out the weak spot.
Jq

All this framework are just making life harder to code js. I will stick with my jquery/raw js as my default.
All of them are just doing the same thing but in different ways.

Wait ooo is it on all cards or few.
I tried to use my cards now and all were declined.

DaudaAbu:
Trust nigerian landlords.

They make sure they incorporate such rates into the house rent.

Moreover, who owns most of the houses in FCT sef? Is it not the same politicians?

Oga talk what you are sure about.

Ok

No it won't stop anyone from stealing public funds.
The truth is that these guys that steal public funds are cursed. Don't pray to be them.

Let them go to Rwanda.

This is to inform the general nl that sachng has just entered the workshop.
More progress update soon.

I will say desperate times calls for desperate measures.
In Nigeria we import almost 90% of everything, but thank God things are changing.

FincoApps:


LOL are you still trying to be the meziah of nigeria ?

Left for me, the country can crumble.... I'm out

Yes I still believe in Nigeria.
As long as am in this country, I will continue to give my best.

dhtml18:
^^I appreciate your comment for drupal, few people really know how to use it. It is just not easy to learn (especially for people used to wordpress, joomla and all the regular CMSes).

Are you say drupal is better?
Is it by force to learn?

That's why we need to buy in naira to grow the economy.
We need lots of start ups in this country.

Sorry guys, I tried to post a popular website been down, but nl strip out the URL and spoilt the fun.
Now the website is back up.

inconclusive.

seunthomas:


Look at this daytime drunk

Let me get back from Krypton and i will give you a good a** kicking straight to GN-z11

You are just a blogger, I concur with @dhtml18
Dhtml18 we know, who the hell are you.

@seunthomas it really high time respect yourself by not post on this section again. I think you are incompetent to be know as a programmer.
For the last few months all you do is talk.
If you are good in what you do, build a simple tool for everybody to benefit from or forever talk and be regarded as our blogger.

Joomla, WordPress, magento, are my most used cms.
Used zend, laravel 4, codeigniter.
Currently using flashphp.
