Custom web application development for businesses in Cameroon

A spreadsheet that no longer keeps up, imported software that doesn't fit, data scattered across WhatsApp and notebooks: I design and deliver the web tool that matches how your business actually works.

Who it is for

I work with business owners, associations and operations teams who have outgrown spreadsheets: you need to see what is happening in your activity, make your numbers reliable and save time on repetitive work.

What I build

  • Dashboards and activity tracking: live revenue, staff tracking, monthly reports ready to hand to an accountant or auditor.
  • Management applications: sales, stock, expenses and orders, with role-based access.
  • Registration, booking and payment platforms: complete flows with payment confirmation, invoices and QR codes.
  • Online learning platforms: courses, quizzes, progress tracking and automatic certificates.
  • Field-team tools: data entry that keeps working when the connection is unreliable.

You can see how these were delivered in the case studies.

Built for the local context

Imported software often assumes card payments, email and a stable connection. Mine starts from a different reality: bookings and reminders over WhatsApp, mobile money payments (MTN, Orange), an interface in French and English, and reliable behaviour even on an irregular connection.

How we work

Every engagement follows the same steps: understand your business, scope what is in and out, build in short iterations with a demo at the end of each, then deliver with documentation and training. The detail is in the method section.

Technologies

I build with React, Next.js and Angular on the interface side, and NestJS and PostgreSQL on the server side, with documented APIs and automated tests. You do not need to know them: what matters is that the tool is reliable and that someone else can take it over.

Frequently asked questions

How much does a custom web application cost?

It depends on scope: the number of features, user roles and integrations (payments, WhatsApp, accounting). After a free first call I send an itemised quote so you know what you are paying for before we start.

How long does delivery take?

A focused first tool ships in a few weeks. A larger platform with payments, roles and reporting is built over several months in releases you can use as soon as they are ready.

Will my team have to change how they work?

As little as possible. I start from the tools your team already uses, such as WhatsApp and mobile money, and keep data entry simple so adoption happens naturally.

What happens after launch?

Every delivery ends with documentation, a training session and a retrospective. Ongoing support and maintenance are available if you want them, with terms set out in the quote.

Do you work with businesses outside Yaoundé?

Yes. Work is done remotely with regular check-ins by video or WhatsApp, for clients in Douala, across Cameroon and in the rest of Francophone Africa.
