@sultanabaniks @apiconflagos sure thing my bro

[Chukwudi Francis Awulor @FrancisAwulor]

I attended API Conference Lagos yesterday.

One idea stuck with me,

We built APIs for users.
Then for developers.

Now we're starting to think about Agent Experience (AX).

Backend keeps evolving.

Been away for a while...

NYSC camp happened 😅

At first, it was a lot, parades, Man O' War drills, competitions, and meeting people from all over the country.

Ede camp Osun state was fun!!

Back now. Time to build again. 🚀

@tymofii Yh, that's true any other new method I could apply tho?

[Chukwudi Francis Awulor @FrancisAwulor]

While building user password recovery in backend services, which do you think is safer?

Reset link
or
OTP

I usually go with OTP.

Cause it's direct and secure

Which would you recommend.. and are there others ?

@jamesadewaradev Yh for a fact, Google's Oauth is a really powerful tool for authentication of users and helps for login, wasn't part of the requirements for this project that's why it wasn't included

[Chukwudi Francis Awulor @FrancisAwulor]

Forgot password flows look so simple, until you build one

User enters email → account gets verified → OTP gets sent → OTP validated → password reset allowed

Easy UI
A lot happening underneath.
Testing this flow today during frontend integration

sad that i'm restricted on the info i can give out on this project though looking forward to releasing some of the video edits(F.E only) soon.

[Chukwudi Francis Awulor @FrancisAwulor]

Started this backend project thinking mostly about code.

Finished it thinking more about systems, structure, users, permissions, scale, and real world behavior.

A lot broke.
A lot got rebuilt.
But I’m glad I stuck with it.

On to the next build.

@jamesadewaradev Mines 4, if I remember correctly.

[Chukwudi Francis Awulor @FrancisAwulor]

omo this multi-tenant SaaS changed how I think about users.

A user stopped being just “someone who logs in.”

Now the system has to understand their role and what data they should even be allowed to access.
What’s the highest number of roles you’ve worked with in a system before

[Chukwudi Francis Awulor @FrancisAwulor]

@jamesadewaradev Facts, also a user can also be an agent. What's the highest number of roles you've worked on in a project?

What concept only made sense to you after building something real?

#KeepBuilding #Backend #Python #FastAPI

[Chukwudi Francis Awulor @FrancisAwulor]

While building my backend system, things got complicated the moment I introduced multiple businesses into the same platform.

That’s when concepts like RBAC and multi-tenant design stopped feeling theoretical.

[Chukwudi Francis Awulor @FrancisAwulor]

I had to think about permissions properly:

who the user is, what business they belong to, and what they should be allowed to access.

Different experience entirely when real users are involved.

[Chukwudi Francis Awulor @FrancisAwulor]

i modeled the environment in Blender, optimized it for mobile, added a virtual joystick + synthesized audio system.

Seeing people actually play it through images and videos hit different.

try it out and comment your highest score!!

Yesterday, a game I built got played live at the NACOS CS Hackathon FUO 2026… and I wasn’t even there 😭

My intention was to create a fun and educative web game experience with Three.js for the event, with the aim of giving back to the community.

highest score so far: 6/10.

[Chukwudi Francis Awulor @FrancisAwulor]

Turned it into a browser-based CS trivia hunt, which contained an explorable 3d environment.

Users had to explore a 3D park, find hidden RED boxes click on each, answer CS questions and do this all under 10mins.
