CreatorConfig: PCPartPicker for streaming & podcast gear

CreatorConfig helps you build a streaming, podcasting, or content creation setup that actually works before you buy. Get compatibility checking, setup warnings, and complete gear lists with one click.

The Stack

  • Frontend: React + TypeScript + Vite
  • Styling/UI: Tailwind CSS + custom component patterns
  • Backend: Node.js (ESM) + Express-style API routes
  • Database: PostgreSQL

The Product

CreatorConfig is a creator gear setup platform where users can build, save, and share complete streaming/podcasting/content-creation setups.

Core product pillars:

  • Builder-first workflow: pick parts by category (mic, camera, interface, mixer, etc.) in a structured flow.
  • Setup publishing system: keep setups private, publish publicly, or feature curated completed setups.
  • Setup detail pages: each setup has its own URL, story content, product breakdown, and buy links.
  • Profile ecosystem: users can manage setups, saved items, and activity from account/profile pages.
  • Discovery layer: browse parts, completed setups, and community builds with cleaner SEO-friendly routes.

Goal: make choosing creator gear less guesswork and more systemized.
