Akinkunmi — editorial portrait

Akinkunmi is a programmer and product engineer who has built multiple developer-focused products, including Byteship, Outray, and Avnac. He's also currently building something new, Aeroplane, another step in his journey of creating useful software.

Rather than focusing on just one startup, he's consistently experimenting, shipping products, and exploring different ideas. That willingness to build repeatedly is something many aspiring founders can learn from.

As developers, it's easy to spend months planning the "perfect" product. Akinkunmi's journey reminds us that progress often comes from building, learning, and shipping continuously.

What I admire most is his builder mindset. Instead of waiting for the perfect opportunity, he keeps creating, iterating, and putting ideas into the world. Every product becomes another step forward, whether it's for developers or a broader audience.

Africa's tech ecosystem needs more people who are willing to experiment publicly, take risks, and keep shipping. Builders like Akinkunmi are helping shape that culture.

If you're interested in software engineering, developer tools, product building, and following the journey of someone who is constantly creating, he's definitely worth following.
