A demo African finance app # CowriPay CowriPay is a Nigerian fintech pitch demo — a full personal + business money app with transfers, bills, airtime, savings, group savings (Ajo), payroll, budgeting, and a Gemini-powered AI money coach. Everything runs client-side in the browser. There is no backend: accounts, balances, and transactions are simulated entirely in `localStorage`. No real money moves, and this is not connected to any bank or payment processor. ## Stack - React 19 + Vite 8 - Tailwind CSS 4 - React Router 7 - jsPDF (transaction receipts) - Google Gemini API (`@google/genai`) for the AI Coach ## Getting started ```bash npm install npm run dev ``` Copy `.env.example` to `.env` and set `VITE_GEMINI_API_KEY` to enable the AI Coach. Without it, the rest of the app works normally — the AI Coach will just show a connection error. ```bash npm run build # production build to dist/ npm run lint # oxlint npm run preview # preview the production build locally ``` ## Deploying This is a static single-page app (client-side routing via `react-router-dom`'s `BrowserRouter`), so any static host works — Render, Vercel, Netlify, etc. - Build command: `npm run build` - Publish directory: `dist` - Set `VITE_GEMINI_API_KEY` as an environment variable on the host - Configure an SPA rewrite/fallback (`/*` → `/index.html`), or deep links (e.g. `/transactions/:id`) will 404 on refresh ## Status Pending CBN Mobile Money Operator licensing. This demo represents the product vision.
