Lumera - Values-Led Community Platform
Community platform with a public Next.js site, Strapi CMS, and branded Discourse community experience.
About This Project
Lumera is a values-led community platform built around a public website, CMS-managed content, and a branded community space.
Key Features:
- Public Next.js website with a calm branded experience
- Strapi 5 CMS for editable content
- Project-local community route that connects to a branded Discourse instance
- Docker Compose local runtime for the web app, CMS, and Postgres
- npm workspace structure for coordinated web and CMS development
- Documented development, architecture, and infrastructure handoff notes
Technical Implementation: Built with Next.js, React, TypeScript, Strapi 5, Postgres, Docker Compose, and a Discourse community integration.
Business Impact: Gives the client a foundation for publishing, organizing, and growing a member community without locking the public website and community experience into one brittle system.
