1 The challenge
The client needed a complete social marketplace platform built from scratch with real-time features, geolocation-based search, and robust content moderation. They required a system that could scale while keeping hosting costs reasonable, and needed it delivered in a tight timeline.
2 The solution
Architected a full-stack application using Nuxt 3 and Supabase for instant real-time capabilities without managing WebSocket infrastructure. Implemented Row Level Security policies in Postgres for secure multi-tenant data isolation. Built a custom admin panel with content moderation queues, user management, and analytics dashboards. Integrated geolocation search using PostGIS extensions for location-based product discovery.
3 How it is built
Built with Nuxt 3 for SSR and SEO optimization. Supabase handles authentication, real-time subscriptions, and Postgres database with PostGIS for geolocation queries. Implemented push notifications using Supabase Edge Functions. Custom admin panel built with Vue 3 Composition API. Deployed on Vercel with automatic preview deployments.
