—AboutAbidjan, Ivory Coast

Hi, I'm Michael

Full Stack Web Developer based in Abidjan, Ivory Coast. I design and develop web experiences that combine technical performance with polished design.

My journey has led me to work on a variety of projects — premium showcase websites, SaaS platforms, business applications — always with the same standard: delivering something the client is proud of and users love to use.

Kodji is pronounced “kod-jee”. Many people spell it differently after hearing it — Kodgi, Codji, Kodjy, Kody, Codgi: it is the same name, and it is me.

My vision

The web should be fast, beautiful, and accessible to everyone — not just those with a good connection or a high-end screen.
01My method

How I work

Three principles that separate a delivered site from a lasting one.

  • 01

    Architecture first

    Before the first line of code, I structure everything: technical decisions, stack choices, data model. A site that lasts is designed, not improvised.

  • 02

    Quality & accessibility

    Readable code, measured performance, WCAG compliance. Standards aren't a constraint — they're what separates amateur work from a professional deliverable.

  • 03

    AI-augmented

    AI is part of my tools, not my foundations. I use Claude, GPT and generative tools to speed up research, prototyping and documentation — but architecture, decisions and code quality remain a developer's craft. That's what separates a generated site from one that holds up in production.

03What guides every project I take on.

My values

  • 01

    Quality above all

    Every line of code is written with care. I'd rather take the time to do things right than deliver fast and poorly.

  • 02

    Transparent collaboration

    Clear communication, regular check-ins, zero surprises. You always know where your project stands.

  • 03

    Continuous learning

    The web evolves fast. I continuously upskill to offer you the best solutions available.

  • 04

    Real impact

    A website should serve your business goals. I measure success in concrete results, not lines of code.
