Mastercard Strive Community

Working alongside agency partners and Mastercard's Center for Inclusive Growth, st Staak we were tasked with the design, development and deployment of the Strive Community website; an online resource for small businesses to achieve economic growth through the adoption of innovative digital and data-first solutions.

Built upon Strapi, an open source, headless CMS and Next.js a react based framework for making highly optimised websites on the frontend. We delivered a robust, scalable website that supported the Strive initiative allowing content creators to deliver a multitude of informative articles, guides and how-to’s for their growing community.

The both front and backend applications were hosted on AWS Elastic Beanstalk using Docker and deployed using AWS CodePipline and CodeBuild integrated with GitHub for continuous deployment as new features were added.
