Build guide

1. 01Project Scaffolding & Database Schema

   Initialize the Next.js application with Tailwind CSS, configure Supabase PostgreSQL connection, and establish core database tables for users, spaces, posts, comments, and memberships.

   Create a new Next.js project using TypeScript, App Router, and Tailwind CSS. Integrate Supabase client libraries and establish a complete relational database schema using SQL migration files. The schema must include tables for: users (id, email, name, avatar_url, role), spaces (id, name, description, is_private, creator_id), space_members (space_id, user_id, role), posts (id, space_id, author_id, title, content, created_at), comments (id, post_id, author_id, content, created_at), and courses (id, space_id, title, description). Ensure proper foreign key constraints, indexing on foreign keys for query performance, and Row Level Security (RLS) policies allowing members to view content only in spaces they belong to. Verify the migration executes successfully against a Supabase development instance.

2. 02Authentication & Member Profile Setup

   Implement user authentication flows with better-auth, session handling, and member profile customization pages.

   Implement authentication in the Next.js application using better-auth configured with email/password and Google OAuth providers, storing user records in our Supabase PostgreSQL database. Build sign-in, sign-up, and password recovery pages with Tailwind CSS and shadcn/ui. Create a protected settings layout where authenticated users can update their display name, bio, custom profile fields, and upload an avatar image. Add a middleware check to redirect unauthenticated visitors away from protected community spaces. Write comprehensive test cases for the auth callbacks and session state validation.

3. 03Spaces & Activity Feed Engine

   Build the multi-space navigation structure and the social activity feed supporting posts, threaded comments, and emoji reactions.

   Build the core community dashboard featuring a sidebar navigation for multiple 'Spaces'. Create a space view that displays an activity feed of posts. Implement server actions for creating posts with rich text, attaching images, and posting threaded comments. Add an interactive emoji reaction component on posts and comments with optimistic UI updates. Ensure the feed correctly filters content based on space membership permissions stored in Supabase. Write unit tests for post creation and comment threading logic.

4. 04Online Course & Lesson LMS Module

   Develop a structured online course player with modules, sequential lessons, and progress tracking for members.

   Create an online course management and viewing module within spaces. Build an admin UI to structure courses into sections and lessons, supporting video embeds, markdown text, and downloadable resources. Build a student-facing course player layout featuring a sidebar lesson navigation tree, completion checkmarks, and progress bars stored in a user_lesson_progress table. Implement server actions to update lesson completion status when a student finishes a module. Add acceptance tests verifying that only enrolled space members can access course content.

5. 05Events & Live Calendar Integration

   Implement event scheduling, RSVP management, and calendar views for community workshops and live streams.

   Build an event management subsystem within spaces. Create database tables for events (id, space_id, title, description, start_time, end_time, location_url, host_id) and event_attendees. Build a calendar and list view component showing upcoming community events, workshops, and live sessions. Implement an 'RSVP' toggle server action that updates attendee counts in real time. Add reminder badges and basic export-to-calendar functionality. Verify timezone handling and date validation across client and server.

6. 06AI Cohost Assistant Integration

   Integrate the Vercel AI SDK to power an AI Cohost assistant that helps hosts draft welcome messages, course outlines, and engagement prompts.

   Integrate the Vercel AI SDK into an administrative sidebar widget named 'AI Cohost'. Create a backend API route using Anthropic API / OpenAI API models that accepts community parameters (topic, target audience, goals) and generates structured course outlines, welcome post templates, and daily engagement questions. Build a React chat interface component allowing hosts to converse with the AI Cohost to refine their community strategy and automatically insert generated templates into their space feeds. Handle streaming responses cleanly with loading skeletons and error boundaries.
