Platform Launch: Client Portal and Admin Dashboard

Today we're launching the first version of the FencePencil platform. Here's what shipped.

Client Portal

Clients can now log into their own dashboard and see:

• Project overview — status, milestones, and timeline
• Activity feed — real-time updates from the development team
• Invoices — view, download, and pay via Stripe checkout
• Team members — see who has access to their organization

Admin Dashboard

The admin (super admin) side includes:

• Organization management — create, edit, and manage client organizations
• Project management — full CRUD with milestone tracking
• Invoice management — create invoices, track payments, manage Stripe
• Impersonation — view the platform as any client for support purposes
• Activity messaging — send updates directly to project feeds

Tech Highlights

• BetterAuth with organization plugin for multi-tenant auth
• Role-based access — super admin, admin, member roles
• Stripe integration — one-time invoice checkout + subscription management
• Drizzle ORM — fully typed database queries
• TanStack Router — file-based routing with type-safe params
