Built StacksNG for the Africa Deep Tech Challenge 2026: an offline AI coding assistant for the African fintech stack (Paystack, Flutterwave, Monnify, Termii).

Runs on an 8GB laptop, no GPU, no internet.

A DEV.to reader found 2 real bugs in it after I published my write-up. I fixed both, added regression tests, documented all of it.

Demo: youtu.be/Ab-XJ722bD8
Repo: github.com/dannwaneri/stacksng

Pathname is a majorly under-utilizied class. Check it out!
