I want to put a lean, cost-effective consumer-to-consumer marketplace online as quickly as possible. Rather than leaning on Shopify or WordPress, I’d like a custom-built stack so we stay free of recurring plugin fees and keep full control of the code. Feel free to recommend the exact mix—React, Vue, or Svelte on the front-end and something solid like Laravel, Django, or a Node.js framework on the back—so long as it gets us to a dependable MVP fast. Hosting on AWS, DigitalOcean, or a similar VPS is fine. Core workflow • New users sign up with email + password and confirm with a second factor (OTP, authenticator app, or SMS). • Sellers add listings that include photos, short clips, and rich text descriptions organised by category. • Buyers browse and filter by category, price, and basic tags, then check out through Stripe, PayPal, or another mainstream gateway you recommend. • Every new listing appears in an admin dashboard where I can approve, reject, or edit before it goes live. Delivery will be managed by the platform (business) and tracking update integration to be provided. Deliverables I need to see - Fully responsive web app (desktop & mobile). - Secure 2-factor user auth tied into the custom backend. - Listing module supporting photo & video uploads plus category metadata. - Product search with basic filters. - Integrated payment flow routed to my merchant account. - Admin panel for listing approval and basic user management. - Source code in a private repo with setup instructions and a short hand-off call or video. Acceptance criteria The MVP should deploy cleanly on a fresh server using the instructions you provide; a new user must be able to register, verify with 2FA, publish a listing, have it approved in the admin panel, and complete a test purchase end-to-end. When you reply please share: 1. A link to at least one similar marketplace or e-commerce build you’ve shipped. 2. The stack you propose and why. 3. A concise timeline broken into milestones. 4. Your fixed-price quote (or a realistic range) for the MVP. I’m ready to move quickly and will review proposals as they arrive.
