What's Hot In Lagos.

What’s Hot In Lagos is a modern discovery platform that helps people find where to go and what’s happening across Lagos. Anora Dev designed and engineered the consumer site plus a full admin CMS so the team can publish venues, events, and recommendations without engineering bottlenecks.

The product needed to feel editorial and trustworthy while still performing like a product: fast browsing, personalized recommendations, and day-to-day publishing workflows for a non-technical content team. We partnered end-to-end—product structure, UI, web app, and CMS—so marketing and operations could run the platform themselves.

Lagos discovery content was fragmented across social posts and outdated directories. The team needed one system that could handle venue directories, event listings, editorial recommendations, and admin workflows—without sacrificing speed or mobile experience for users on the ground.

Venue directories with rich detail pages; event listings and calendars; personalized recommendation surfaces; comprehensive admin CMS for non-technical editors; performance-focused mobile web experience; publishing workflows that keep content fresh without developer intervention.

The team now runs discovery content from a single platform instead of ad-hoc posts. Editors can update venues and events independently, and users get a faster, clearer way to find places and events in Lagos. Live site: whatshotinlagos.com.
