🌐 kenat_chrome_extention is out — Ethiopian calendar new tab for Chrome.

My friend @designdave has been asking me to build a Chrome extension for Kenat… so here it is.
Geez clock, weather, agenda, todos, countdowns, quick links, and search with suggestions. EN / አማርኛ.

side project 2:
If you've ever worked on a telebirr integration, you know how much of a pain it is. 😮‍💨

You don't get full information from the team, the docs leave you guessing, and raw API integration eats days — key format errors, TLS failures on the test gateway, signature mismatches, sandbox errors that look like YOUR bugs but aren't.

So I built the tools I wish I had:

📖 documentation site that explains what the official docs don't.

👨‍💻 PHP — composer require melaku/telebirr
GitHub
Packagist

👩‍💻 JS/TS — npm install @melakudemeke/telebirr-js
GitHub
npmjs

One call to create a checkout, one call to verify a payment. Keys work exactly as Ethio Telecom issues them, TLS works out of the box, structured errors, retries, token caching — all handled.

V2 release coming soon🔥
