Initial multi-language platform scaffold for AIABASD/AIBA — auth, data models, APIs, and seed data

[zexc66]

This PR establishes the production-ready scaffold for the AIABASD/AIBA platform with multi-language support (Arabic, English, French) and a strong backend/frontend foundation. Key additions and changes:

• Frontend & Localization

  • Next.js 15 App Router app with locale routing for ar/en/fr, RTL support for Arabic, and a responsive Tailwind setup.
  • Basic UI/structure scaffolding and routing groundwork to support pages like opportunities, projects, funding, news, investor portal, etc.
  • i18n: locale config and routing scaffolding to support multilingual content and locale-based metadata generation.

• Backend & Data Model (Prisma)

  • Prisma schema with core models: Opportunity, Partner, CountryProfile, NewsPost, InvestorIntent, ContactInquiry, and related fields aligned to MVP requirements.
  • Seed script to populate initial data: 6 opportunities across sectors, 3 partners, 3 country profiles, 3 news posts.
  • Prisma migrations and seed workflow wired up for quick startup.

• API Layer & Serverless Routes

  • Health check: /api/health
  • Opportunities API: /api/opportunities with filtering and text search (Meili/Prisma fallback).
  • Investor intent: /api/investor/intent to create intent, with LOI PDF URL generation.
  • LOI PDF: /api/investor/intent/[id]/pdf serving a PDF (via pdf-lib).
  • Contact form: /api/contact with basic field validation, reCAPTCHA v3 hook (with rate limiting) and persistence.
  • Upload presign: /api/uploads/presign for secure media uploads (S3-compatible).
  • Basic auth gate: NextAuth-based authentication with credentials and Google/LinkedIn providers; session-based protection for dashboard routes.
  • Strapi client scaffolding to fetch content from the Strapi CMS layer (optional MVP integration).

• Security & Middleware

  • Security headers and CSPs via middleware; basic rate limiting for form submissions; simple locale redirection and portal gating.
  • Middleware gates investor dashboard behind authentication and locale routing logic.

• Data & Search

  • Optional MeiliSearch integration scaffolding for opportunities indexing and fast search; fallback to Prisma queries when not configured.
  • Basic search and filtering support for opportunities by sector, country, stage, and SDGs.

• Admin & CMS Seeds (Strapi)

  • Strapi content-type scaffolding for opportunities, partners, country profiles, news posts, including SEO fields.
  • Content API client utilities to fetch from Strapi in Next.js app.

• Analytics, SEO, & Sitemaps

  • SEO helpers with localized metadata generation and JSON-LD helpers, plus sitemap generation scaffolding (sitemap.ts and sitemap.xml route).
  • Basic OpenGraph/Twitter meta scaffolding and JSON-LD payloads.

• Deployment & DX

  • Dockerless, cloud-ready scaffolding designed for Vercel deployment with environment variable-driven configuration.
  • Seed and seed-run scripts included for quick MVP initialization.

How this solves the MVP goals:

• Provides multi-language, Africa-focused foundation with Arabic as default RTL language and EN/FR mirrors.
• Establishes core data models and APIs needed to list projects, funding opportunities, and investor profiles.
• Enables investor outreach through LOI PDFs and in-platform application workflows.
• Lays groundwork for Map integration, project discovery, and networking features in future iterations.
• Sets up testable CI/CD hooks and a scalable architecture for growth.
