Your pharmacy's books, balanced automatically — to the cent. Most pharmacy systems stop at "track my stock." hashtag#DawaTrack goes further — it's a full point of sale and a real accounting system, working together. Every sale at the counter: - Instant stock lookup, pricing, and discounts at the point of sale - Cash or M-Pesa payment, your choice - Posts automatically to your general ledger — no manual bookkeeping Behind the scenes, DawaTrack keeps proper double-entry books: - Live chart of accounts — cash, M-Pesa settlement, inventory, payables, all tracked - Every sale and purchase posts automatically, balanced in real time - Know your true financial position, not just your stock count This is what running your pharmacy like a real business looks like — not a notebook, not guesswork. This week: free setup + onboarding for the first 5 pharmacies who reach out. WhatsApp +254 798 540965 for a quick 5-minute demo. 📍 dawatrack.com

Huge gratitude to the @taprootfound for organizing this initiative, and to the brilliant @twilio engineering team who gave their time and expertise. One lesson I'm walking away with: it's invaluable to share the solution you're building with others, just to get their perspective. The approach you're convinced is the best one isn't always the right one. Stay open to exploring alternatives, and adopt a "solution architecture" mindset — factor in the other variables that matter just as much as the technical elegance: cost, scalability, user context, maintainability. Sometimes the smartest move isn't building the cleverest solution. It's building the right one.

47 hours debugging a 403 Forbidden issue on a multi-tenant Django app. Thought it was CSRF. Turns out it was django-allauth behaving differently in production. Big lesson: If admin login works, your problem probably isn’t CSRF 😂 Production debugging will humble every engineer.

350 tests passing in CI! 🚨 Only 4 LinkedIn tests left to fix. Key lesson: OAuth needs dummy values in GitHub Actions, and use localhost not service names for DB. Progress over perfection. 🎯 #Django #Python #buildinpublic

Spent the day building new features for AnalyticsMeta — the analytics platform I'm developing to simplify how teams get insights from their data. 🔌 Real-time dashboards with WebSockets — live updates. Goal: turn raw data into insights without complex BI tools

I had the chance to walk colleagues through dashboard insights, and it reminded me of something important: Data only becomes powerful when people can see and understand it. Dashboards are not just charts on a screen. They are decision-making tools.
