It's built to feel like a real SaaS product — something teams could actually adopt — rather than another portfolio-style CRUD app.</p> <h2> Core Features </h2> <ul> <li> <strong>Scrum + Kanban in one workspace</strong> — manage backlogs, plan sprints, assign user stories, and move tasks across customizable boards.</li> <li> <strong>Role-Based Access Control (RBAC)</strong> — separate permissions for <code>owner</code>, <code>manager</code>, and <code>employee</code> roles, each with a different dashboard experience.</li> <li> <strong>True multi-tenancy</strong> — every company's workspace data is completely isolated, while a <code>superadmin</code> role manages the platform globally.</li> <li> <strong>Showcase demo security</strong> — a custom middleware blocks all write/delete operations from the public demo account, so public demos stay safe without limiting real admin functionality.</li> <li> <strong>Polished UI details</strong> — shimmer loading skeletons, responsive layouts, a custom toast notification system (replacing native <code>window.alert</code>), and smooth client-side routing with a Vercel SPA rewrite fix.</li> </ul> <h2> Tech Stack </h2> <p><strong>Frontend:</strong> React 18, TypeScript, Vite, Tailwind CSS, Redux Toolkit, Axios<br> <strong>Backend:</strong> Node.js, Express.js, Mongoose (MongoDB), JWT Auth, Cloudinary, Nodemailer</p> <h2> The Architecture Challenge </h2> <p>The most interesting part of building this was the multi-tenant isolation layer. Every model is partitioned by <code>companyId</code>, ensuring users from one company can never access another company's data — while still allowing a superadmin to operate across all tenants for platform-level management.</p> <h2> What's Next? </h2> <p>This is just the core. The roadmap includes:</p> <ul> <li>Real-time team chat using Socket.io</li> <li>AI-powered task breakdown — automatically splitting user stories into subtasks</li> <li>A global dark mode toggle</li> </ul> <p>🔗 <strong>Live Demo:</strong> <a href="https://sync-board-pro.vercel.app" rel="noopener noreferrer">https://sync-board-pro.vercel.app</a><br> 💻 <strong>GitHub:</strong> <a href="https://github.com/vaibhav348/SyncBoard_pro.git" rel="noopener noreferrer">https://github.com/vaibhav348/SyncBoard_pro.git</a></p> <p><strong>🔑 Test Credentials:</strong></p> <ul> <li>Email: <code>syncboard@dummy.com</code> </li> <li>Password: <code>Dummy@123</code> </li> </ul> <p>Would love feedback from the community — especially on the multi-tenant architecture decisions or the RBAC implementation.
