Public utility sites — a concept rebuild

problem

People open a utility site in a hurry — no heat, no power, a bill to pay. The aging WordPress sites (one of them my own earlier build) put news first and those answers second.

built

Both sites solo (38 of 38 and 10 of 10 commits) on one stack: Next.js with its own CMS — Prisma and Postgres, a Tiptap editor, a media library, roles with deny-by-default access — and a full content migration that keeps every old URL working (899 posts and 69 pages for heat; 829 news, 121 pages and 6,196 media files for power; 0 broken links). Heat: every way to pay, a “no heat — what to do” helper, meter-reading reminders to a calendar or Viber, an “A+” text-size switch with contrast checks. Power: the hourly outage schedule is the first block, synced from the live site every hour. Both run on staging — the companies did not commission them.

Self-initiated concept — not commissioned by the companies it is about.
