We need a single, cohesive platform that blends a full-featured reward-based crowdfunding system with an integrated multi-vendor marketplace. The goal is for creators to launch campaigns, take pledges, and—when funding goals are met—seamlessly sell their physical products, digital downloads, or even on-site services from the very same account. Key workflow • Creators sign up, build a reward-tier campaign, set funding targets, and publish. • Backers pledge through secure payment gateways; funds stay in escrow until goals are reached. • Once funded, the campaign automatically converts to an active storefront listing inside the marketplace, where shoppers can continue to buy items (physical, digital) or book services. Core functions I’m expecting • Campaign builder with tiered rewards, stretch goals, and rich-media storytelling tools. • Real-time funding tracker, analytics dashboard, and campaign-specific messaging center. • Marketplace engine supporting inventory, digital file delivery, and time-slot scheduling for services. • Vendor and customer dashboards, order management, shipping label generation, and tax / fee calculations. • Secure payments, escrow release, and split-payment logic for platform fees. • Responsive design plus an admin panel for user moderation, payout approvals, and content management. Tech stack is flexible; common choices like Laravel / Node.js for the back end and React / Vue for the front end blended with Framer/Webflow are fine as long as code is clean, documented, and ready for future scaling. Please outline: 1. Proposed architecture and tools, 2. Milestone breakdown from MVP through final polish, 3. Any similar projects or live demos you can share, 4. Estimated timeline. Production-ready, test-covered code and basic deployment docs will be the acceptance criteria.
