    Modular Visual-Editing Platform & Headless CMS Demo

    ⚡ Modular Visual-Editing Platform & Headless CMS Demo

    Production-grade, multilingual web application featuring real-time visual click-to-edit capabilities powered by a tailored Headless Sanity CMS backend.


    📌 Project Overview

    Traditional headless CMS setups often create a disconnect: content managers edit isolated text fields in an external dashboard without seeing where or how their changes appear.

    This project was engineered as a high-performance client solution and interactive demo that bridges that gap with true visual inline editing. Non-technical teams can click, modify, and publish live content, banners, and structured pages instantly directly from the visual interface.

    • 🌐 Live Demo & Test Accounts: Available upon request for prospective clients and evaluators.

    🚀 Traditional CMS vs. This Architecture

    • Visual In-Context Editing: Eliminates guessing. Click any component directly on the live preview to edit text, imagery, or nested pathways in real time.
    • Granular Component Architecture: Page sections are designed as modular, composable blocks rather than rigid, hardcoded templates.
    • Multi-Language Infrastructure: Built-in routing and localized schema management across English, French, Turkish, and Arabic.
    • Zero Bloat & Edge Speed: Server-side rendered on Next.js with optimized image pipelines, delivering sub-second load times and high Core Web Vitals scores.

    🛠️ Tech Stack

    • Frontend: Next.js (App Router), React, Tailwind CSS
    • Content Management: Sanity CMS (Structured Data, Live Previews, Custom Workflows)
    • Optimization: Next/Image CDN pipeline, Semantic HTML & Automated Structured SEO Schema

    MemoVolume

    🔊 MemoVolume: Modern Per-Process Windows Audio Manager

    A high-performance, lightweight Windows volume mixer utility built for instant per-app audio adjustments, global hotkeys, and seamless system tray integration.


    📌 Overview

    MemoVolume modernizes the traditional Windows volume mixer. Built specifically to eliminate clunky nested menus, it gives power users, gamers, streamers, and developers instant, granular control over individual application volumes with zero background bloat.


    ✨ Key Features

    • Per-Process Volume Control: Independently balance volume levels for every running application without navigating deep OS settings.
    • Global Keyboard Shortcuts: Modify, mute, or balance audio on the fly—even while inside fullscreen games or intensive workspace apps.
    • Modern Windows 11 Fluent UI: Crafted with a clean, dark-mode native interface that integrates seamlessly into the desktop experience.
    • Lightweight “Set & Forget”: Sits quietly in the System Tray with near-zero idle CPU and memory overhead.
    • Native Multi-Architecture Support: Fully optimized for both x64 and ARM64 architectures (including Snapdragon-powered Copilot+ PCs) for maximum battery efficiency.

    🛠️ Tech Stack & Implementation

    • Platform: Windows Desktop (Windows 10 / 11)
    • Framework: .NET / WPF (Wpf.Ui Fluent Design System)
    • Core API: Windows Core Audio APIs (WASAPI / Endpoint Volume Management)
    • Architecture: Native x64 & ARM64 builds
    • Distribution: Microsoft Store & Windows Package Management (MSIX packaging)

    💡 Engineering Highlights

    • Real-Time Process Tracking: Dynamically detects active audio sessions, newly spawned apps, and terminated processes with zero UI stutter.
    • Hardware-Friendly Efficiency: Minimized polling overhead by hooking into native Windows audio state events rather than running continuous query loops.

    Screen: Media Tracking & Edge Data Pipeline

    🎬 Screen: Media Tracking & Edge Data Pipeline

    High-performance media tracker and dual-datastore architecture combining live scrobble ingestion, automated sync pipelines, and edge search acceleration.


    📌 Overview

    Screen is a personal media tracking platform and filmography explorer. It pairs an interactive frontend dashboard with a hybrid database pipeline designed to eliminate cold starts, process live playback telemetry, and serve aggregated watch history instantly.


    🏗️ Architecture & Data Pipelines

    1. Primary Store — Neon Serverless PostgreSQL

    • Source of Truth: Stores full watch history, title ratings, and metadata cache.
    • Materialized Views: Pre-calculates long-term affinity metrics and ranking tables directly in Postgres to feed frontend charts without lag.
    • Nightly CI/CD Sync: Automated GitHub Actions workflows recompile aggregated stats and refresh materialized views on a nightly schedule.

    2. Edge Acceleration — Cloudflare D1 & Workers

    • Instant Search Index: Offline-compiled SQLite database distributed via Cloudflare D1, delivering sub-millisecond search queries with zero serverless cold starts.
    • Live Scrobbling Endpoint: Ingests minute-by-minute playback payloads and live triggers from MemoStream to drive real-time “Now-Playing” states.
    • Security & Rate Limiting: Edge Workers proxy TMDB requests to protect private API keys, enforcing rate limits (max 3 req/10s) to prevent abuse.

    📊 Tech Stack Summary

    • Primary Database (Neon PostgreSQL): Serverless relational store & materialized views
    • Edge Index (Cloudflare D1): Replicated SQLite for instant cold-start-free search
    • Edge Compute (Cloudflare Workers): Secure TMDB proxy, rate-limiting & scrobble ingestion
    • Telemetry (MemoStream): Desktop client playback sync and telemetry emitter
    • Automation (GitHub Actions): Scheduled nightly database compilations & view refreshes

    💡 Key Highlights

    • Cold-Start Elimination: Shifted heavy search traffic and write spikes to edge-native D1/Workers, keeping the primary PostgreSQL instance lean.
    • Zero-Lag Views: Multi-year watch datasets are pre-computed into static materialized tables so frontend exploration never hits blocking queries.
