Iran Organized Exchange (ICE) — Public Web Portal

Commissioned design and build toward a public web portal for Iran’s organized currency exchange (ICE): institutional tone, RTL UX, and a Next.js + MySQL stack direction. The contract was discontinued before launch; this entry documents the engagement and technical approach without implying an active public product.

Challenge

Regulated-market portals must feel authoritative and consistent: visitors need clear official messaging without clutter, and engineering must stay maintainable as content and compliance requirements evolve. RTL layout, typography, and publishing workflows all had to match institutional expectations—not a typical marketing site.

Solution

Scoped a Next.js–based public site with MySQL-backed structured content, prioritizing predictable navigation, editorial-friendly data shapes, and performance for information-heavy pages. Work progressed through architecture and implementation toward stakeholder review milestones.

Impact

Delivery advanced the client’s product direction and technical foundation; the programme did not reach a verified production release under our contract. Qualitatively, the intended value was a single credible channel for official exchange-related communications instead of fragmented unofficial sources.

Project overview

Iran Organized Exchange (ICE) — commissioned work toward a public institutional web portal for regulated currency-market information and stakeholder communications: structured pages, trustworthy publishing, and RTL-first UX aligned with an official financial audience.

What we built

Product direction & information architecture — page map and content model for an official public presence (announcements, reference material, and clear paths for visitors seeking regulated-market context).
Web application — built toward a Next.js front end with MySQL for structured content and configuration, suitable for editorial workflows and stable public delivery.
Institutional UX — emphasis on clarity, accessibility, and conservative visual language appropriate to a government-regulated financial domain.

Technical approach

Server-rendered and hybrid patterns typical of Next.js for fast first paint and SEO-friendly public pages; relational storage in MySQL for articles, metadata, and operational settings. Separation of concerns between public read paths and any authenticated or administrative areas was part of the design—implementation depth depended on the engagement timeline.

Outcome

The client relationship ended before a production launch could be completed or verified publicly. The work remains documented here as a historical case study of scope, architecture direction, and delivery under a regulated fintech brief—not as a live product endorsement.
