We will be working on the following projects:

Fineract provides a reliable, robust, and affordable solution for entrepreneurs, financial institutions, and service providers to offer financial services to the world's 2 billion underbanked and unbanked. Volunteers from the 501(c)3 non-profit Mifos initiative originally developed the core banking platform. This project will consist of Angular, Java API, and Android development. Mifos is dedicated to effectively and efficiently delivering financial services to the poor.
