My Congolese

A community platform I built from the application code through production deployment. I also handled its mobile app version, alongside social features, publishing, events, and business discovery on the web.

End-to-end ownership: application code, architecture, database, deployment, and the mobile app version.

Case study

Ownership, decisions, and delivery.

01

Project brief

A shared digital space for a global community

My Congolese combines public content, community activity, events, business listings, and career opportunities in one platform. Public pages support discovery while signed-in areas provide the social experience.

02

Role and ownership

Built from code to production, with ownership across web and mobile

I created My Congolese across the full development lifecycle: application code, frontend, backend, architecture, database design, and production deployment. I also handled the mobile app version. My web work includes public pages, authenticated features, and protected administration.

03

Product structure

Public discovery and signed-in community features in one platform

The platform needs to make articles, events, businesses, and opportunities discoverable while supporting member activity and protected administration. The implementation separates public pages from authenticated product flows, with Supabase backing the data and Next.js connecting the web experience.

04

Community experience

Features for connection, conversation, and participation

Social features

The platform includes feed posts, comments, reactions, friendships, groups, direct messages, notifications, stories, and reels.

Events and publishing

Public articles, curated news, events, and shareable pages make community information easier to publish and discover.

Business and career discovery

Searchable business listings and job opportunities give organizations, professionals, and community members dedicated ways to find one another.

05

Technical delivery

Application code, data workflows, and production deployment

I built the web application with Next.js and TypeScript, used Supabase for backend services, TanStack Query for client data workflows, and Zod for validation. I also handled deployment to Google Cloud Run, carrying the implementation through to a live platform.

06

Mobile app

Responsibility beyond the website

I also handled the mobile app version of My Congolese. This extended my responsibility beyond the responsive website to the platform's app experience.

07

Current status

Live and under active development

The web platform is live, with public content and discovery alongside member features. I continue working across the product's code, data, deployment, and ongoing development.
