My most successful project of 2024 is my coding bootcamp, succes.ci. It's a comprehensive, online platform designed to teach and empower aspiring developers, focusing on practical, project-based learning.

What sets succes.ci apart is its potential to revolutionize coding education in Côte d'Ivoire and across French-speaking Africa. By combining quality curriculum, hands-on projects, and accessible pricing models, it addresses the pressing need for accessible, high-quality tech education in our region.

My vision is to partner with coding schools in Côte d'Ivoire and other French-speaking countries in Africa to scale the impact. This collaboration would help build a pipeline of talented developers who can meet the growing demands of the tech industry locally and globally.

I'm also seeking investors to help us expand the platform's reach, enhance its features, and create a robust ecosystem for coding education. With the right support, succes.ci can play a pivotal role in nurturing tech talent and fostering innovation across the Francophone African region.

I built a set of scripts to fully automate my Linux installation process from live to bootstrap to target environment. It includes a way to build a snapshot of the system in use. The snapshot is sourced by the installation script. The system consists of a general system to handle snapshots and the specific snapshots themselves. A snapshot consists of specific scripts to configure the system (partition disk, bootloader, configure network, and etc) and a directory tree mirroring the target system.

It is meant to be used in an iterative process where I easily update the snapshot as I make changes to my system in use. The purpose is to not have to spend time trying to figure out how the system was configured in case it crashes. I should be able to restore my system with minimal trouble.

I use this for my local computer and simpler servers I operate. The project has been a fantastic way to learn Linux.
