The Origin

Termed was conceived as a successor to Amitermed, designed to take user account management to the next level. This wasn't just a website; it was a full-scale web application intended to be Resynced's first live, public-facing product. We wanted to build a platform where users could manage their digital identity across multiple services from a single dashboard.

Architecture

We knew Termed needed to scale. We moved beyond standard frameworks to build a high-performance architecture that could handle thousands of concurrent connections.

Why Go?

We chose Go (Golang) for the backend, specifically utilizing the Fiber framework. Fiber is inspired by Express.js but built on top of Fasthttp, the fastest HTTP engine for Go. This allowed us to achieve extremely low latency API responses, essential for the snappy feel we wanted.

• Frontend: Next.js for a reactive, server-rendered UI.
• Database: PostgreSQL for reliable relational data, paired with Redis for lightning-fast caching of user sessions and profile data.
• Storage: S3 CDN for efficient asset delivery.
• Payments: Integrated Stripe for seamless subscription handling.

The Termed user dashboard

Features

The core of Termed was its Instant Profile Management. Users could update their digital identity in real-time, with changes reflecting instantly across the platform. We implemented WebSockets to push updates to the client immediately, eliminating the need for manual refreshing.

We also built a comprehensive Admin Dashboard to manage the platform's growing user base, allowing us to handle support and moderation directly. This included detailed user analytics, subscription management, and system health monitoring.

Performance

Termed successfully launched with 281 registered users and racked up over 3,300 views. It served as a proving ground for our full-stack capabilities, demonstrating that we could build, deploy, and maintain complex software systems. The Go backend proved incredibly resilient, handling spikes in traffic with minimal resource usage compared to our previous Node.js implementations.
