Hi there! 👋

I'm Timonwa Akintokun — a software engineer, technical writer, and DevRel engineer from Lagos, Nigeria. I build products people use, and guide developers building their own.

What I Do

  • Web Development — I build full-stack apps with Next.js and Firebase — auth, data, and realtime — and lead frontend on production web apps: design systems, frontend migrations, shared component libraries, testing, and documentation.
  • Developer Relations — I write and maintain documentation, build tutorials and example apps, support hackathons, and ship developer-experience improvements.
  • Technical Writing — I write product documentation, developer guides, tutorials, and in-depth articles, published on freeCodeCamp, LogRocket, Turing, Uploadcare, and my own blog.
  • Open Source — I build and maintain my own open-source projects — typed React and TypeScript libraries, free web tools, and starter templates — and contribute to others.

Currently

  • ✍️ Writing tutorials and guides on web development and AI at Timonwa's Notes
  • 🧰 Building free tools, guides, and templates for writers, developers, and creators at Odd Jobs
  • 📦 Maintaining a set of typed React and TypeScript libraries
  • 🛒 Selling templates, starters, GPTs, and guides in my Shop

What I Work With

  • Build: TypeScript, React, Next.js, Astro, Tailwind CSS, Firebase
  • Write & document: Markdown, MDX, technical documentation
  • Design & tools: Figma, Canva, Git, Postman, Swagger
