Senior's Journey – Retirement Hub

The Senior's Journey Retirement Hub is an innovative and user-friendly platform designed to assist seniors and near-seniors in their retirement planning and engagement with available retirement benefits.

Our first release offers a comprehensive collection of learning content that provides valuable information about retirement planning and available benefits. The content is curated to help the public understand the benefits they are eligible for and how to access them. Additionally, we are launching a retirement planning quiz that can be completed by the public. Upon completion, the quiz provides a checklist of tasks that users should consider for their retirement planning needs. The platform is user-friendly, intuitive, and accessible for seniors of all skill levels. Our team is dedicated to providing an exceptional user experience and enhanced support to ensure that our users have the best possible experience using our platform.

Modules

This repository contains three main modules:

• the frontend module contains an application built using Next.js
• the gitops module contains Kubernetes manifests that describe the state of our Kubernetes cluster's dev, test, and production environments
• the infrastructure module contains a Terragrunt project that deploys infrastructure-as-code OAuth clients for Azure Active Directory

frontend

The frontend module contains a Next.js application that serves as our frontend. The purpose of this application is to provide a user interface for our customers to interact with our platform. To start the application, simply run npm run dev.

gitops

The gitops module contains a description of our Kubernetes cluster's state. This state is divided into dev, test, and (eventually) production environments, each with its own set of YAML files containing the desired state. To make changes to any of these environments, simply edit the appropriate YAML file and submit a pull request. Once approved, our TeamCity pipelines will automatically deploy the changes to the target environment.

infrastructure

The Infrastructure module contains a Terragrunt project that deploys OAuth clients for Azure Active Directory. We use this to protect our nonprod environments and provide secure access to our platform. This project includes a terragrunt.hcl file that defines the infrastructure, as well as various subfolders containing necessary configuration files. To deploy the infrastructure, simply run terragrunt apply in the target environment folder.
