Bnusa
Kurdish Digital Publishing Infrastructure
Bnusa is a dedicated Kurdish platform for structured reading and writing.
It was built to solve fragmentation in Kurdish digital publishing by creating a centralized, searchable, and long-term ecosystem for articles, reviews, and serialized books.
Unlike social media platforms where content is temporary and scattered, Bnusa provides a structured publishing workflow, identity system, moderation lifecycle, real-time interaction, and archival tools.
The goal was not to build “another website” — but to engineer infrastructure for Kurdish literature.

The Problem
Kurdish writers were publishing across disconnected spaces:
• Facebook posts
• Telegram PDF drops
• Instagram captions
• Foreign platforms not optimized for Kurdish
There was no structured archive, no publishing lifecycle, and no dedicated digital home for long-form Kurdish writing.
Content was fragmented, hard to discover, and platform-dependent.

The Solution
Bnusa centralizes Kurdish publishing into one engineered ecosystem:
• Structured article publishing
• Cultural review system
• Full book serialization engine (Ktebnus)
• Draft → review → publish workflow
• User profiles, followers & bookmarks
• Real-time notifications
• Searchable content archive
• Automated PDF generation (light & dark versions)
It transforms scattered writing into organized, searchable, and permanent digital literature.

My Role
Founder & Full-Stack Architect
I designed and built the entire platform end-to-end:
• System architecture & data modeling
• Backend APIs & authentication flows
• Database schema & indexing strategy
• Image optimization pipeline (WebP + thumbnails)
• Real-time notification infrastructure
• PDF rendering engine
• SEO architecture & structured metadata
• Deployment & production hardening
This project reflects full ownership — from product vision to infrastructure-level engineering.

Impact
• 400+ registered users
• 60+ articles
• 40+ books with active chapters
• Growing writer engagement
Bnusa is engineered for long-term scalability as digital infrastructure for Kurdish literature.
