Project 03Web + Admin
Memowrite.
Memoir Writing & Printing
A web platform that takes personal stories from guided writing to a printed hardcover book. The workflow connects AI text refinement and photo restoration with cover design, validated PDF generation and print-provider order tracking. An admin dashboard supports order review and fulfilment, alongside subscriptions, gifting and support for eight locales.
My role
I architected and built the customer application, Fastify API, PostgreSQL database and admin dashboard, defining the data model and API contracts across writing, editing, subscriptions and ordering.
