Problem

Basic blogging systems fail to support structured workflows, multi-user collaboration, and content lifecycle management, making them unsuitable for growing platforms or teams.

Solution

Developed a full-stack CMS platform with role-based access control, a modular REST API, and a rich text editing experience using Lexical. The system enables users to create, manage, and publish content efficiently, while giving administrators control over platform content.
