News Site: Atjèh Times
A news website featuring the latest articles, clean layout, intuitive navigation, and a custom-built CMS for authors.
The project
Atjèh Times is a full-stack news website where users can browse and read articles, and authors and admins manage content through a custom-built CMS.
For readers:
- Browse articles by category, and search by keyword or author
- Responsive design that works on any device
- User accounts with profiles and avatars
For authors:
- Create, edit, and delete articles with a rich text (WYSIWYG) editor
- Upload and manage images via Cloudinary
- Dashboard to track article performance
For admins:
- Manage users, roles, and permissions
- Moderate submitted content
- Create and organize categories
- View site-wide analytics
The problem this solves is giving a small publication a full-featured news platform of its own without relying on a third-party CMS. Authors get an easy writing/publishing workflow, and admins keep full control over users and content. The backend uses JWT-based authentication with Passport, MongoDB/Mongoose for data, and is set up for serverless deployment on Vercel.
