Most developers assume you need a laptop, a proper desk setup, and reliable power to ship production software. I'm doing it from a Tecno Android phone in Abuja, Nigeria using Termux.

Here's what I've actually shipped:

What I built

aitopcards.xyz — a full AI subscription store selling ChatGPT Plus, Claude Pro and Cursor Pro. Built with Next.js frontend, MongoDB backend, Telegram bot for customer management, and Paystack for payments. Deployed on AWS EC2 with PM2 and Nginx.

SubBot — a Telegram subscription bot that handles the complete sales flow: plan selection, payment collection via Paystack, instant access activation, expiry reminders and admin dashboard. Zero manual intervention required.

The stack running on my phone

Termux — Linux environment on Android

Node.js + Express — backend

MongoDB — database

Next.js — frontend

PM2 — process management

Git — version control

SSH into AWS EC2 — deployment

What actually works

Termux handles everything a Linux machine handles. Git, npm, SSH, file editing — all from a phone keyboard. The biggest challenge isn't technical — it's typing speed and screen size.

Open to freelance projects

Telegram bots, payment integrations, full-stack web apps.
