🚀 WebBaseline Pro
💡 Inspiration
The idea for WebBaseline Pro came from the need to quickly analyze and improve websites' technical health.
Many developers and startups struggle to identify performance issues, SEO gaps, and accessibility errors without using multiple complex tools — so we decided to build one unified platform.
⚙️ What It Does
WebBaseline Pro scans any website URL and provides a detailed analysis of key parameters like:
- ⚡ Performance Score
- 🔍 SEO Structure
- 🔒 Security Headers
- 📱 Mobile Compatibility
It helps developers instantly view where their website stands and how to fix issues effectively.
🧠 How We Built It
The project is built using:
- Frontend: React + Tailwind CSS for a clean and responsive interface
- Backend: Node.js with Express for handling API requests
- Database: Supabase for storing scan history and user data
- APIs: Lighthouse & custom logic for scoring website parameters
Deployment:
- Frontend → Netlify
- Backend → Render
This setup ensures a smooth, full-stack workflow and optimized performance.
🧩 Challenges We Ran Into
- Integrating Lighthouse API efficiently without slowing response time
- Handling CORS and asynchronous data fetching issues
- Managing real-time scan updates in the UI
- Balancing performance with detailed reporting
🏆 Accomplishments We're Proud Of
- Achieved near-instant scan results with optimized backend caching
- Created a modern dashboard UI for visual analytics
- Learned how to integrate Supabase and Node.js seamlessly
- Delivered a fully deployed, production-ready project
