This is not a simple business website or WordPress project. The platform will function similarly to Patreon, where users can create accounts, subscribe to different paid membership tiers to then watch exclusive videos, interact with posts, join community discussions, and message other members in a live chat. The website will include premium video streaming with protected paywalled content, public video previews, custom usernames, a member chat/messenger system, a community/group page similar to Facebook groups, donation functionality, newsletter integration, and a clean modern mobile-friendly design. You MUST understand secure video hosting and streaming solutions such as Cloudflare Stream, Mux, Bunny Stream or similar platforms. We need someone who understands how to securely host premium video content and prevent non-paying users from accessing full videos. Preferred technologies include Astro or Next.js, Stripe subscriptions/payments, Clerk/Auth/Firebase authentication systems, database integration, and a CMS/admin dashboard for managing content and users.
