About 9jacoder

Named Arthur IbukunOluwa Arokhamoni at birth. Still a software developer. Founded Artmanntech Solutions. Still based in Nigeria.

I build tools for contexts that mainstream tech ignores. My current focus is *9jaCoder Code Editor (9CE)*, a full desktop IDE that lets developers write and ship complex software in Nigerian indigenous languages: Hausa, Yorùbá, Igbo, and Fulfulde, alongside English and French. A real development environment, for real programs, in languages that 100+ million people actually think in.

The premise is simple: programming aptitude has nothing to do with English fluency. The global tooling industry has quietly assumed otherwise for decades. I have built the alternative.

Beyond 9CE, I work across the stack, PyQt5 desktop applications, PHP/MariaDB web systems, educational software, mostly solving problems that are specific to the Nigerian context: low-connectivity environments, indigenous language literacy, local civic infrastructure, cattle tracking (to prevent rustling and solve farmers/herders clashes).

I live to solve problems.
