Hi Hive, I’m Kolapo 👋
I’m a web developer from Ondo State, Nigeria, and I’m currently studying Applied Geophysics at FUTA.
My first project was a simple HTML site with tables, forms, radio buttons, dropdowns, and a Nigerian flag. Nothing fancy, but when it worked I felt like “okay, I can actually do this.”
I got into tech after starting university, even though I had a small interest in it back in secondary school. What pushed me was wanting to understand how websites and apps actually work under the hood — the algorithms, the logic, all of it. I also wanted a skill that could bring passive income and part-time work while I’m still in school.
On Hive, I’ll be sharing:
- Dev tips I learn while building with React
- Small projects and what I break/fix along the way
- My journey balancing school, tech, and crypto
I’m still early in this space, so I’m here to learn and connect with other devs.
Question for you: What was the first thing you built that made you feel like “okay, I can actually do this”?
