Built a cinematic gameplay archive where creators publish and share their best gaming moments. Offloaded playback to the YouTube iframe player — the 'Ghost Engine' — so the platform runs with zero video storage or encoding costs, while a PostgreSQL layer owns the product logic: three visibility tiers (private/unlisted/public), a pending → approve/reject moderation pipeline, per-video view and watch-time analytics, and shareable creator profiles with vanity URLs. Implemented Google OAuth via NextAuth and session-aware fuzzy search (Fuse.js) that only surfaces public videos or the searcher's own.
