Brief History:
Hi, I am Ahmed Mohamed Gaber and this is a personal project that I have built and currently managing, around 2015 I have started a long journey to shift my career towards programming, and in 2017 I have received a Grow with Google Scholarship to study a front-end web development course, during that course, I have had the idea of building a personal project that will both enhance my coding skills and also make use of business opportunities created by the availability of rich datasets and open data sources that can be accessed using several public APIs, the availability of these data sources creates the opportunity to innovate the way people surf and search the web. so I have worked to build whefi.com and in April 2020 I have published its first release.
Solopreneurship:
Running the platform on my own meant that I have become a solopreneur that will have to work individually to perform multiple tasks, as a result of that I have developed a wide range of skills while using a wide range of technologies. Whefi.com gave me a unique opportunity to improve my coding skills and to work as a full-stack developer, moreover, I became also responsible for the UX, managing social media channels, and copywriting, this wide range of experiences is highly valuable and I can not think of other opportunities that could have offered me the same experiences. Although currently, I am the sole member that works on this project, expanding the team and adding new members will probably follow the success of the current phase that aims to validate the business idea behind this project and its financial viability.
Personal commitment:
Solopreneurship requires a huge commitment and sacrifice; since 2019 this project has received a huge commitment from my side, I have perceived this project as a standing business entity and therefore dedicated the required effort and hard-working to grow it, moreover, I am still committed to this project and dedicating time and effort to improve it further.
