Great build! The stack choices are solid, and hitting a 95+ Lighthouse score with Next.js 14 and Sanity shows serious attention to detail.
I especially like the NutPost project. Building a multi-platform social media scheduler is no easy task—handling API rate limits and real-time analytics across different networks gets tricky fast. Tools in that space, like SocialRocketAI, show how strong the demand is for clean scheduling workflows and smart multi-platform management.
Looking forward to seeing more case studies added to the portfolio. Best of luck with the freelance work!
