LeptisDwa
A free, bilingual medicine-sharing platform built for Libya.
The problem
Medicine can be unavailable at pharmacies while unused boxes sit nearby in family homes. LeptisDwa creates a direct way to list spare medicine, request hard-to-find medicine, and let charities or individuals fulfil open requests.
Engineering detail
- A responsive web application with a managed cloud backend and database.
- Arabic and English content built into the product architecture, including complete right-to-left layouts for Arabic.
- A consent-gated exchange model: contact details stay private until both sides agree to connect.
- Cloud hosting with a production domain, designed for access across mobile connections.
- The first public version was taken from idea to live service in 2026.
What was hard
The difficult part was not a listing form. It was making a sensitive exchange useful without exposing personal details too early. The workflow separates public medicine information from private contact data, then releases the contact path only after explicit consent. The interface also had to remain equally clear when direction, reading order, and form layout switch between English and Arabic.
