Project Breakdown
Softora Guide is a completed personal Next.js website for organising software information into an accessible browsing experience. Category navigation, explanatory content and software-discovery pages share a consistent design. The project addresses a practical publishing problem: helping visitors move from a broad software category to useful buying-guide content without making every page feel disconnected. Reusable layouts and a clear content hierarchy keep the website understandable as its library grows. This case study includes screenshots of the independent implementation. It describes the interface and content architecture, not unverified search rankings, revenue or customer outcomes. Live-site and repository links are intentionally omitted; the project can be explored through the portfolio.

For a New Project
My current freelance workflow for new enquiries, not a record of this project's commercial terms or delivery timeline.
Scope in Writing
Requirements, pages and features are captured in a written scope before any work starts - so both sides know exactly what's being built.
Fixed Quote
One written price for the agreed scope. No hourly meters, no creeping invoices - changes are quoted separately before they happen.
Build with Staging Links
The project goes up on a private staging link early. You watch it take shape and click through real pages instead of waiting for a big reveal.
Written Updates & Review
Progress, decisions and feedback stay in writing - so nothing gets lost in calls and every revision has a clear reference.
Launch + 30-Day Support
Deployment, forms, metadata, analytics and mobile layout all get checked before go-live - then I stay available for fixes and questions for 30 days.

Frequently Asked
Project credit, the technologies used, and what this portfolio preview includes.
Is this project completed, and can I open the live site?+
This is a completed personal project. The public page is a case study, not a live application demo. Live-site URLs, account logins and source-code links are intentionally not published.
How is the project credited?+
This is an independent personal implementation by Ali Rehman, presented as a personal case study rather than a client engagement.
What do the project visuals show?+
The gallery contains screenshots of the independent implementation. It documents the interface, not a measured traffic, revenue or security result.

Yes. Use the contact page to describe your requirements. Any new work would have its own scope and original implementation; client code, confidential data and proprietary assets are not shared.
