Post a problem. People vote. The top idea gets built, free.

A public board for Africa. Anyone posts an idea or a question. Everyone votes in 72-hour rounds. The top problem or idea gets built in the open by engineers on the bench, free, and stays maintained.

enabos comes from enabo, a Maa word from the Maasai people of Kenya and Tanzania. It means oneness, unity: many people, one thing. A nabo is one thing on the board.

Anyone who signs in: a name, a name to show, an email, a country. Not an engineer? Good. The people who have the problems are the point.

An innovator has an idea that could make an impact, and may not have the technical skills to build it. An engineer has the skills to make it real: they weigh proposals, vote, and build the winner on the bench, all the way to production. One person can be both. Nothing here fences you in.

Everyone signed in, once per idea per round. Not signed in? You can read everything, and that is all.

The bench talks to you until you say "yes, that is it". Stay reachable: if we cannot reach you for 14 days after the win, the board moves on and your nabo is archived; post it again when you are ready. Then they build it in the open and post progress here. When it is finished you get first call for 90 days: take it live yourself, or open it to anyone. Say nothing for 90 days and it opens on its own.

No. Nothing is paid to post, to vote, or to have something built. The site itself costs money to run; giving towards that is optional and every amount is listed openly.

Everyone. You choose the licence when you post, Apache 2.0 or GPL 2.0 or later, and it cannot be changed later. Packages a project depends on keep their own licences.

The engineers who build and maintain what the board picks. Ranked by what they did on GitHub, not by title. Highest on a nabo is its director; top three overall are gurus.

Yes, if it is African: adoption is African-led, for the continent's own companies, governments, groups and people. From outside Africa you adopt jointly with an African partner, both names on the page. Once a project is finished and open, an adopter signs a short covenant: their name and country go on the project page, they may carry the project's name, and they are asked for a flat, public pledge that is split by a published rule. Never a percentage of anything. The code itself stays open to the whole world either way.

On the constitution page: rounds, first call, owner duties, licences, adoption, conduct. One page, plain words. Everything the site does traces back to it.

Your full name and email stay private. The board shows only the name you picked, your country and the date. No ads, no tracking, nothing sold. The site’s own code is kept closed for exactly this reason.
