Hey developers
My name is Egimuk, and I’m building Vylo — a social platform focused on helping people connect, share, communicate, and build communities in a more modern and creative way.
This project started as an idea called Aura Lenz, but after refining the vision and direction, I renamed it to Vylo.
The Link is not yet changed
What is Vylo?
Vylo is being designed as a modern social/community platform with features around:
- Real-time chat and communication
- Social feeds and posts
- Communities and discussions
- Media sharing
- Modern UI/UX experience
- Scalable architecture for future growth
The goal is not just to clone existing social apps, but to create something that_ feels fresh_, lightweight, community-driven, and meaningful — especially for young people and growing digital communities.
Current Stack
Currently working with technologies like:
- React + ShadcnUI + Vite
- Node.js + Express.js
- Socket.IO
- MongoDB
- TailwindCSS
- Modern scalable frontend architecture
Why I’m Posting This
I’m looking for:
Collaborators
Developers, designers, product thinkers, or anyone passionate about building modern platforms.
Partners
People interested in helping shape the direction, growth, branding, marketing, or community side of the project.
Early Supporters / Investors
Individuals or organizations interested in supporting an ambitious African tech startup idea at an early stage.
Who I’d Love to Connect With:
- Frontend developers
- Backend developers
- Mobile developers
- UI/UX designers
- Branding & marketing people
- Startup mentors
- Investors interested in African tech
- Students who want to build something impactful
Why I Believe in This Project:
I come from Rwanda, and I strongly believe more globally scalable tech products can emerge from Africa.
Many young developers have ideas but lack:
- collaboration opportunities
- mentorship
- funding
- strong communities
I want Vylo to become more than just an app.
I want it to become a platform built with community energy from the beginning.
Current Stage
The project is still growing and evolving, but major foundations and ideas are already being developed.
Right now, I’m mainly focused on:
- architecture
- feature planning
- UI/UX refinement
- scalability
- branding direction
Interested?
