About the Project
Poko Stories is a serialized fiction super-app that Nexolve built and operates end-to-end as a React Progressive Web App packaged with Capacitor for iOS and Android, with a Next.js admin portal for editorial management. The full TypeScript monorepo shares schema types and API clients across the reader app and admin portal; Supabase Edge Functions handle chapter gating against subscription state in under 5ms. Razorpay covers India readers, PayPal covers global subscribers, and Nodemailer delivers serialized chapter-drop notifications that drive weekly retention.
How It Works
- 1
Stories are authored in the Next.js admin portal (built with Shadcn UI) and staged as encrypted draft chapters in Supabase Storage; the editorial team reviews and schedules chapter drops with a calendar-based publish queue.
- 2
The React PWA hydrates into a fully client-side reading experience, variable-font speed reader, OLED-optimised dark theme, and Intersection Observer-powered smart bookmarks that persist scroll position at paragraph level.
- 3
Chapter access is gated by a Supabase Edge Function that verifies the reader's active subscription tier against the chapter's required plan before streaming content, latency under 5ms even on slow connections.
- 4
Subscription billing uses Razorpay Subscriptions for India (UPI, cards, wallets) and PayPal Billing Agreements for international readers, with webhook handlers that update entitlement state in real time.
- 5
Nodemailer sends chapter-drop notifications and re-engagement sequences; Google Analytics tracks reading completion rates and chapter-level drop-off to inform editorial scheduling.
