Ansospace

Overview

Ansospace is a cutting-edge developer ecosystem and platform designed to power a suite of modular, secure, and scalable internal tools and microservices for software products—enabling rapid building and scaling of SaaS applications. It provides reusable SDKs, core services, and a unified developer experience across web and mobile products.

Our mission is to create a product-ready, future-proof platform that supports multiple applications (from Learning Management Systems to delivery and finance tracking) by reusing shared resources like authentication, notifications, analytics, UI kits, and more.

Key Features

Modular monorepo architecture (ansospace) hosting reusable SDKs and internal tools like auth, notifications, gamification, chat, SEO, analytics, and UI design systems.

Polyrepo microservices for independent, versioned backend services like user management, billing, content management, media processing, and quiz evaluations.

Product-specific polyrepos encapsulating web and admin apps plus product-specific backend services, enabling isolated yet collaborative development.

Dedicated mobile monorepo (ansomobile) housing React Native SDKs and mobile apps, sharing core mobile components and utilities.

Security-first approach: JWT-based authentication, Role-Based Access Control (RBAC), OAuth2 PKCE for native apps, and runtime validation with Zod schemas.

DevOps and CI/CD workflows powered by pnpm, turborepo, GitHub Actions, Vercel, Railway/Fly.io, and observability tools like Sentry and PostHog.

Extensible and reusable: Each new product leverages shared platform components to accelerate development and reduce duplication.

Vision

Ansospace aims to become the foundational ecosystem powering all current and future applications internally and for clients. By fostering an “ecosystem-first” mindset, every feature and product developed reuses core platform resources, enabling rapid innovation without reinvention.

🧱 Core Architecture

1. Monorepo: ansospace

Frontend foundation & plugin SDKs

  • apps/web: public-facing frontends
  • apps/dashboard: global super-admin dashboard
  • tools/: publishable, reusable SDKs (auth, notifications, gamification, etc.)
  • packages/: design system (ui), shared types, shared config

Core Tools under tools/

  • @ansospace/auth: replace Clerk/Auth0 with your own
  • @ansospace/notify: self-hostable Mailgun/OneSignal alternative
  • gamification-kit: leaderboards, XP, badges
  • @ansospace/chat: reusable internal chat layer
  • seo-kit, analytics-kit: for metadata and business intelligence

Note: ansospace is an internal-use-only foundation and landing site for platform marketing.

2. Microservices (Polyrepo)

Each is independently deployable, versioned, and language-agnostic.

Repo Responsibility
user-service User identity, roles, RBAC
notification-service Email, push, in-app events
cms Blogs, course content, FAQs
media-service Image uploads, file processing
billing-service Stripe/webhooks, plans, subscription
institute-service Colleges, schools, rankings, metadata
quiz-service Create, evaluate, rank quizzes

Each service:

  • Exposes a REST/gRPC/OpenAPI interface
  • Uses Zod/Schema contracts in shared-types
  • Auth via auth-kit
  • Traced via analytics-kit

3. Modular Product Apps (Polyrepos per Product)

Each product (e.g., LMS, delivery app, school system) should have separate polyrepos with the following suggested structure:

<product-name>-platform/
├── apps/
│   ├── web/               # Public-facing web app (Next.js)
│   ├── admin/             # Admin panel for managing product-specific logic
├── services/
│   └── <business-service> # Core backend logic
├── packages/
│   └── types/             # App-specific types or utils (optionally share with ansospace)
├── .env.local             # Environment config for local
├── README.md              # Scope and responsibility

❌ Do NOT include mobile/ here to avoid bloating dev workflows.

4. Shared Mobile Monorepo: ansomobile

React Native SDKs & Apps

ansomobile/
├── apps/
│   ├── delivery-app/       # Mobile delivery app (Expo)
│   ├── lms-app/            # LMS student app
│   ├── school-app/         # School management mobile
├── packages/
│   ├── ui/                 # Reusable native components
│   ├── auth-kit/           # Shared mobile auth SDK
│   ├── notification-kit/   # Mobile notifications + Firebase
│   └── types/              # Shared types with ansospace
├── README.md

5. GitHub Organization Strategy

Organize your GitHub repos into teams/folders using GitHub Projects or naming convention:

⬇️ Recommended Repo Naming

Scope Example Repo Purpose
Shared Infra ansospace Internal monorepo + landing
SDKs/Plugins auth-kit, chat-kit, etc. Independent toolkits (npm-publish)
Mobile ansomobile React Native workspace
LMS lms-platform, lms-service Product polyrepo
Delivery delivery-platform, delivery-service Delivery business logic
School school-platform, school-service School management system
Services user-service, notification-service Core backend microservices

✅ Use platform suffix for polyrepo apps ✅ Use service suffix for backends

🔐 Security by Default

  • Zod-based runtime validation for all configs
  • JWT & RBAC handled in auth-kit
  • Role-level UI in apps/dashboard
  • Use OAuth2 PKCE flows for native apps
  • API gateway restricts service exposure
  • Internal CLI for secrets management (TBD)

🏗️ Developer Experience

  • pnpm + turborepo: workspace management
  • changesets: controlled versioning for publishable packages
  • eslint, prettier, tsconfig unified via @ansospace/config
  • storybook for UI packages (planned)
  • nx or bazel optionally later for complex service graph

📆 Future-Proofing: All Apps Plug-and-Play

Each new app should:

  • Consume from @ansospace/* SDKs (tools)
  • Share UI via @ansospace/ui
  • Deploy from own polyrepo with shared internal deps
  • Integrate with base microservices (user, media, analytics, etc.)
  • Ship mobile using ansomobile workspace

Example: School Management System

Uses:

  • auth-kit, user-service
  • notification-kit for report cards
  • quiz-service for assessments
  • cms for content
  • chat-kit for parent-teacher chat
  • billing-service for fees
  • Mobile app from ansomobile/school-app

🚀 Platform Tooling

  • GitHub Actions: CI/CD + publish + tests
  • Vercel: frontend hosting
  • Railway/Fly.io: microservices
  • Sentry/PostHog: logging/telemetry
  • Neon/Supabase: storage

📚 Documentation

  • Each repo contains a SCOPE.md
  • Root docs: docs/architecture.md, docs/tooling.md, docs/onboarding.md

📍 Strategy Summary

  • Reusable SDKs in monorepo
  • Stateless, versioned microservices for logic separation
  • Zero-vendor lock-in: no Mailgun, Clerk, etc.
  • Frontend-ready platform with shared UI + auth + analytics
  • Future apps reuse without reinvention
  • Dev-friendly, CI/CD-first, open-core architecture
  • Modular polyrepos for product scaling (web, admin, mobile, service)
  • Dedicated mobile monorepo (ansomobile) for scalable native apps
  • Platform tooling for seamless deployment, logging, and analytics
