Hey Product Hunt! 👋
I'm Daniel, a solo builder from Nairobi, Kenya , and I'm building BookSwap Kenya.
The idea started with a simple question:
Why buy a new book when someone in your neighbourhood already owns the one you want to read?
I wanted to make books more accessible without everyone having to continuously purchase new copies.
But somewhere along the way, the idea grew beyond swapping.
Today, BookSwap Kenya is evolving into a bookish ecosystem where readers can discover, swap, lend and sell books, build reading wishlists, find fellow readers and attend community events.
We've even started organising Pages & Picnics, where readers bring books, snacks and good energy.
We're building this from Kenya, for readers everywhere.
No big publishing house. No giant team. Just a love for books and a belief that stories deserve to travel.
I'd love to hear what you think!
Books don't end. They travel. 📚
