What it does

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

From The User's Side

  1. 01Stories 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. 02The 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. 03Chapter 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. 04Subscription 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. 05Nodemailer sends chapter-drop notifications and re-engagement sequences; Google Analytics tracks reading completion rates and chapter-level drop-off to inform editorial scheduling.
