Benefactor

Membership app on Bazaar: creators run pages with monthly tiers and members-only posts, fans join, follow, like and comment.

Data

Everything lives in each creator's own Bazaar DB. src/lib/data.ts sets the permissions when a creator opens the studio:

• pages, posts: public. Locked posts show title and teaser.
• post_bodies: public bodies, or bodies whose tiers contain one of the reader's purchased products ($containsAny: "$purchases").
• comments, likes, followers: anyone signed in adds or removes their own.
• _files under public/: covers and post images.

Tiers are Bazaar products with group = page ID. A post locked to a tier unlocks for that tier and every pricier one; new tiers are added to matching posts.

Followed pages are kept in the fan's own following collection for the feed.

Run locally

Needs the SDK from the sibling bazaar/ monorepo, built once:

cd ../bazaar && pnpm --filter @bzr/bazaar-types --filter @bzr/bazaar run build
pnpm --filter @bzr/bazaar-frontend run build   # popups served by the mock
node mock/src/mock.ts -i benefactor -u http://localhost:5173

npm install
VITE_APP_ID=benefactor npm run dev

In mock mode, subscribing to a Creator plan and setting up payouts in the Bazaar popup complete immediately, and joining a tier needs no card.
