Sudd Library

Sudd Library is an open-access, offline-first educational platform I built after volunteering as a teacher in Nimule, South Sudan, and seeing how few digital resources existed there for the national curriculum.
The problem: Schools were relying on Ugandan and Kenyan materials because South Sudanese curriculum content wasn’t easily accessible digitally.
What I built: A lightweight, offline-first web platform (built with Astro) that stays usable in low-bandwidth environments — structured and indexed lesson notes, schemes of work, and learning resources across subjects and grade levels.
SEO & discoverability: Built with Astro’s static-site generation for fast load times and clean, crawlable HTML — critical for reaching users on slow or expensive mobile data. Integrated Pagefind for fast, client-side full-text search across all resources without a backend. Site is indexed and monitored through Google Search Console and Bing Webmaster Tools, with semantic HTML and structured content pages supporting organic discovery by students and educators searching for South Sudanese curriculum materials by subject, grade, and topic — a gap in existing search results.
Status: Live and actively serving students and educators.
