Problem: The church needed an admin-friendly site to manage content and media without manual deployments.

Approach: Built a Node.js + Express backend with PostgreSQL, paired with a responsive frontend. Used Netlify functions for serverless endpoints and JWT authentication for admin access.

Result: Delivered a maintainable admin interface, secure login, and automated deployments — reduced manual update time and simplified content management.
