The brief.
Stuart needed a single platform that did three things at once: showcase his film and ad scoring portfolio with persistent audio playback, sell sample packs and stems through a real checkout, and let him publish new work without engineering involvement. Existing template solutions broke at the persistent-audio requirement; existing storefronts broke at the audio-portfolio requirement.
The architecture.
A Next.js App Router build with Server Components for the catalogue and a single Client Component island for the persistent audio player, lifted to the root layout so it survives navigation. Supabase handles auth, product catalogue, order records, and asset storage with row-level security policies. Razorpay handles checkout. The admin dashboard is a separate authenticated route that lets Stuart upload tracks, set prices, and ship sample packs without writing code.
What we hardened before handover.
Supabase RLS policies for every table. Rate limiting on the inquiry form and checkout endpoints. Full audit logging for admin actions. A security dossier delivered as a separate document. Contracts under the Indian Contract Act and DPDP Act 2023.
Outcome.
[To be filled with launch metrics — load time, conversion rate, first-week revenue — within 30 days of public launch.]
