The core loop is buildable, but a dependable replacement becomes a real weekend or multi-day project. For Bettermode, publish a branded community portal with spaces, posts, and member profiles. The hard boundary is embeds, apis, customization, analytics, moderation, and enterprise integrations, plus network, moderation, and communication infrastructure.

Act as an expert Full-Stack Software Engineer. Your task is to build a complete, highly-customizable, open-source community platform clone inspired by Bettermode. The platform should empower businesses to build branded customer portals, support forums, and engagement hubs with a primary focus on deep customization and seamless user engagement.

Use the following stack: Next.js 15 (App Router), TypeScript, PostgreSQL, Drizzle ORM, Tailwind CSS (for white-labeling capability), and Socket.io for real-time features. Use Docker Compose to containerize the application for easy local development.

### Core Requirements and Features:
1. **White-Label Branding & Customization**: Provide a flexible configuration system allowing administrators to dynamically change the platform's appearance. This includes customizable color palettes, typography, logos, and configurable navigation menus. Ensure UI components adapt elegantly to theme configurations.
2. **Community Structure & Organization**: Implement a hierarchical organization system. Support creating 'Spaces' (e.g., Q&A, Discussions, Announcements) and organizing content within those spaces using 'Topics' and 'Tags'. Spaces should support different post types (standard posts, questions, polls).
3. **Rich Engagement Tools**: Build a robust content engine supporting rich text formatting and image uploads. Include interactive features like content upvoting/downvoting, threaded nested comments, and social sharing. Implement basic interactive polls and surveys.
4. **Gamification & Reputation System**: Develop an automated reputation system to drive engagement. Users should earn 'Reputation Points' and unlock 'Badges' for activities like receiving upvotes, answering questions, or posting popular content. Display these metrics prominently on user profiles.
5. **Real-time Notifications**: Use WebSockets to deliver live updates for new posts, comments, mentions, and upvotes without requiring a page refresh. Include an in-app notification center and support for email digests.
6. **User Profiles & Role-Based Access Control**: Create detailed user profiles displaying activity history and badges. Implement a comprehensive RBAC system with roles like Admin, Moderator, Member, and Guest, allowing fine-grained control over who can view, post, and moderate specific spaces.
7. **Moderation Tools**: Provide administrators with a dashboard to review reported content, ban users, manage spam queues, and review an audit log of administrative actions.
8. **Developer Extensibility**: Design a RESTful API structure for the core entities and implement a webhook dispatch system that triggers events on user actions, demonstrating integration capabilities with external CRM tools.

### Engineering Standards:
- Write clean, well-documented, and type-safe TypeScript code.
- Ensure the database schema is fully normalized. Use Drizzle migrations.
- Implement comprehensive error handling, input validation, and secure authentication.
- Create a `docker-compose.yml` that boots the app and DB with a single command.
- Seed the database with a realistic sample community on initial startup.
- Deliver a comprehensive `README.md` detailing local setup, environment variables, theme customization steps, and a brief overview of the database schema.
