Our Teck Stack:
Backend: NestJS, PostgreSQL, Prisma
Frontend: NextJS, Redux, TailwindCss

API we will need to integrate with:
EasyPost - for shipping api integration
Stripe - for payment

Next Steps:
This document serves as the engineering scope for the Verified User Marketplace rollout. Figma designs is ready for review to understand the flow but overall final is still in progress. Development can begin in parallel for foundational backend, wallet system, listing creation, and user verification components.

This project is Phase 1 of our larger marketplace roadmap. We’re actively looking for a developer to join our extended team for future phases (P2, P3, P4), which will include more advanced features, scaling, and integrations. If the collaboration goes well, you’ll be our first choice to rehire and potentially work with us long-term." (client-provided description)
