Dear Builders,

A new month is here for us to build, learn, share, and keep showing up.

Whether you’re starting something new or continuing what you began, every step adds to the story.

Let’s make something worth remembering. ✨

@vercel, in collaboration with Common Chronicles, hosted it’s own chapter of the Zero to Agent Buildathon in Lagos🚀

Builders came together at @nithub_lag, to design and ship AI agents and also had a couple of mentoring sessions where they got to learn how to refine ideas.

Monday reminder for anyone staring at a blank screen right now:

Every project you admire started with someone who had no idea what they were doing.

Start anyway. That's the story worth telling.

Happy Monday from Common Chronicles ✨

[CommonChronicles @create_eureka]

We successfully had our first failure friday session last week.

Turns out giving people permission to talk about what went wrong instead of what went right, they freely express themselves

Full recap dropping soon. Updates coming about the next session.

[Odusthegreat @Odusthegreat0]

I just wrapped up the ALX ProDev Front-End Development Program! 💻
It’s been a journey of growth, late-night coding, and great connections.
Grateful for how far I’ve come — and excited for what’s next. Let’s Build ✨🚀 #ALX #Frontend

[Odusthegreat @Odusthegreat0]

I joined the Eureka meetup earlier today, and it was such a great experience. We had meaningful conversations about wellness and how to stay balanced while chasing our goals. Really glad I showed up — it was inspiring and energizing.

[CommonChronicles @create_eureka]

The Eureka meetup today focused on wellness — it was refreshing and inspiring. We shared thoughts on maintaining balance while working on our projects, discussed self-care, and connected over personal growth. A really uplifting session overall.
