Neighborly

Overview

Neighborly is a request-first local marketplace for community listings and exchanges.

Problem

Local exchanges need a shared place to discover listings and coordinate community transactions.

Architecture

1. 01

   React + TypeScript client (Vite)

2. 02

   API client / HTTP requests

3. 03

   NestJS modules: auth, listings, users, safety

4. 04

   Prisma data access

5. 05

   PostgreSQL

The diagram follows the repository's client/API split, backend modules, Prisma service, and PostgreSQL schema.

What I Built

• Marketplace screens for discovery, categories, listing details, creation, messaging, saved items, profiles, and dashboards.
• Backend authentication, listing, user-profile, messaging, and trust/safety modules.
• Frontend-to-API wiring with a modular NestJS backend and Prisma/PostgreSQL persistence.

Technical Challenges

Connecting a broad set of marketplace flows to consistent API behavior while keeping authentication and trust/safety responsibilities explicit.

Stack

Validation / Testing

• Repository includes backend auth, listing, safety, and HTTP/service tests, plus frontend marketplace and trust/safety tests.
• The repository documents frontend typecheck/build and backend Prisma generation, typecheck, tests, and build checks.
