A marketplace platform: distance-based search (PostGIS + Google Maps), producer onboarding and validation workflow, orders, email and Slack notifications with action buttons for administrators, search autocomplete.
My tasks
- Node.js/PostgreSQL marketplace API
- PostGIS + Google Maps geolocated search
- Producer onboarding and validation workflow
- Email and Slack notifications with admin actions
Problem
Local producers lack visibility and consumers have no simple way to find who produces what nearby, nor to order directly.
Results
Increased local product sales and safer, more transparent transactions for both sides of the marketplace.
