Radiation Games
Radiation Games is a gaming site for news, reviews and guides. It is really two things in one project: the site readers see, and the dashboard the team uses to publish to it.
The homepage opens with a lead story, then editors' picks, categories and the most-read posts. Every article has a cover image, a photo credit and a read time. The archive is split into pages, so it stays easy to browse as the site grows.
The dashboard lets writers publish without touching any code. They get a full editor, image uploads, categories and a search description, and drafts stay private until they are ready. It also shows how many posts there are, how many views they get and which are read most each month. Accounts come in editor, sub-admin and super-admin roles, and everything sits behind a sign-in.

The dashboard the team uses to run the site. Writers get a full text editor, can upload cover and inline images, pick categories and set the search description, and keep drafts private until they are ready to publish. The post list can be searched, filtered and sorted. The home screen shows how many posts there are, how many views they get and which ones are read most each month. Accounts come in editor, sub-admin and super-admin roles, all behind a sign-in. It runs on its own Node.js backend, with everything stored in MongoDB.
