Dare Together
Full-stack platform for a curated entrepreneur community
A complete web platform for Dare Together - a curated community connecting entrepreneurs, freelancers, and remote professionals through intentional co-living blocks across Southeast Asia. 377 TypeScript files, 61 pages, 112 API routes, and 31 database migrations - spanning a public marketing website, a members-only portal with profiles and community features, and a full admin dashboard with CRM, CMS, media library, and analytics.
The Story
The Challenge
Design and build a production-grade platform from scratch for a selective community - covering a public website with editorial design, SEO, and CMS-managed content, a secure member portal with profiles and community directory, and a comprehensive admin dashboard for managing members, blocks, content, email templates, and analytics.
The Solution
Built a full-stack Next.js 16 application with Supabase (PostgreSQL, Auth, Storage, RLS), Stripe payment preparation, Resend for transactional emails, and Upstash Redis for rate limiting. Implemented magic-link authentication, a multi-role permission system (Admin/Moderator/Editor/Member), a drag-and-drop CMS, a media library with image cropping, and a markdown-based blog system.
The Result
A fully custom-designed platform with a warm, editorial aesthetic - no templates. Three separate application areas (public site, member portal, admin dashboard) with a consistent design system. The public website features ISR, JSON-LD structured data, and full SEO optimization. Member and admin areas are protected by role-based access control with Supabase RLS. Only the public website is visible to outside visitors.
