The first stop of our October 2024 Daytona Developer's Club Nigeria tour was a tremendous success! We packed the venue with over 150+ passionate technology professionals and enthusiasts, all eager to dive into how Daytona is empowering developers to focus more on what they do best — coding — by cutting down the time spent on setting up dev environments. We also explored the benefits of joining open source communities like Daytona and learned why Go is becoming the go-to language for modern devs! A special shoutout to Ivan Burazin, Jesse Essang, Anita ihuman, and David Olagookun for such a great kickoff. Now, we’re ready to raise the bar even higher in #PortHarcourt! We know this developer community is up for the challenge. Are you ready? See you on Saturday!
