Having a directory where you can quickly lookup at technologies used by African companies/startups so you can narrow your job search and increase your precision with job hunting or cold emailing is really helpful. WhatCompanyStack is an open source web application that curates tech stacks used by African startups/companies. It gives a clue into what tech stacks are used in a company for backend, frontend, DevOps, database, etc. You want to see it as a insightful resource base for your tech research...etc Please star this project. Thanks.
Please see our frontend github repo
The project has an admin interface admin.whatcompanystack.com. This is where the technological stacks are sourced for. We get the information about the tools these companies use from job postings. We scrape these info from online job postings but we also manually do our research and store the information when we have to.

- Automatic sourcing of information: While we automatically source (scrape) information at times, we aim to fully automate the sourcing of tech stack information about companies.
- Adding a Rating Feature : This is simply adding a rating feature to index the most used stack of these startups or companies. We want to display tech stacks base on the one that is most used by a company. All stack are relevant but a stack can be what is powering a major aspect of their system.
