Apex Masterclass
01 / EXECUTIVE_SUMMARY
Apex Masterclass is an end-to-end event management and digital admission platform built for high-impact masterclasses. Powered by Next.js and Prisma, the platform delivers secure tier-based ticket purchases, automated Flutterwave payment verification, real-time ticket generation with QR validation, and automated certificate dispatch.
02 / TECHNICAL_DEEP_DIVE
Apex Masterclass is designed to handle high-concurrency event registration and automated gate operations. The system features an imperative modal workflow for ticket acquisition and inspection, paired with a payment flow integrated with Flutterwave that verifies transactions using unique transaction references (`tx_ref`). Upon successful verification, the platform auto-generates digital tickets embedded with unique QR codes (`a_id` and `e_id`) for physical and virtual check-in verification via an internal `/verify` portal. For offline utility, attendees can export print-ready PDF passes created through an `html2canvas` and `jsPDF` render workflow. For administrators, the platform includes dynamic ticket seat allocation tracking across Basic, Premium, and VIP tiers. To streamline post-event delivery, an automated certificate dispatch engine uses `puppeteer-core` and `@sparticuz/chromium` to generate personalized PDF certificates, complete with custom external package configurations in Next.js to eliminate process memory leaks on serverless AWS deployments.
