Pretty Healthy Foundation is a live nonprofit platform for Dr. Priti Parekh — a board-certified physician in Internal Medicine and Lifestyle Medicine — focused on community wellness education, mental health programs, and lifestyle initiatives. I was the sole developer on the project, working alongside one designer over an 8-week engagement (January–February).
Scope Built the entire web platform from scratch — including frontend implementation, CMS architecture, payment integration, transactional email setup, and full production deployment.
Frontend (Next.js + TypeScript) Implemented the designer's UI in Next.js with TailwindCSS, prioritizing server-side rendering and aggressive use of Next.js cached components to keep page loads fast. The site includes dedicated sections for programs, individual program detail pages, blogs, media galleries, about/founder pages, volunteer onboarding, donation flow, and contact.
Sanity CMS Integration Designed and integrated a full Sanity CMS setup so the client can self-manage every content surface on the site without developer involvement. Schemas cover:
- Blog posts
- Founder profiles
- Programs and activities
- Media gallery
- Contact form submissions
- Volunteer form submissions
- SEO metadata
Implemented live preview/edit for the blog section, allowing the client to draft and preview blog content in real time before publishing.
Stripe Donations Integrated Stripe Payments directly without a separate backend database — the client specifically wanted to avoid donor data duplication and rely on Stripe as the source of truth. Implemented the full donation flow using Stripe's hosted components and API, with payment confirmation via callback.
Transactional Email (Resend) Set up Resend for transactional email delivery — contact form replies, volunteer confirmations, and donation receipts.
Deployment & Infrastructure Owned end-to-end deployment — Vercel hosting, custom domain configuration, SSL setup, and DNS — handing the client a fully production-ready system.
