Lightning-fast proxy for GitHub, npm & AWS APIs during TZ outages.
Tanzanian developers suffer frequent internet outages and slow speeds that make cloud-based devtools like AWS and GitHub unusable, causing project delays.
DevProxyTZ runs a smart caching proxy in TZ data centers that prefetches and serves dev APIs instantly, even offline via local edge cache. It learns your usage patterns to pre-cache popular packages/repos. Devs get sub-100ms responses regardless of global internet glitches.
