I am launching a fresh, Egypt-based classifieds marketplace and need it built from the ground up. The core of the job is the first release (MVP), then we will iterate together on advanced features. Technology I am open to either a classic PHP/MySQL stack or a modern Node.js + React approach; advise me on which path fits best for speed, scalability and long-term maintainability. What I need right now • Secure user registration and login • Post an ad with multiple photos, description, price, category and location • Public ad view page • Basic search with category and location filters • Simple dashboards for sellers and for administration Future phases (quoted separately once the MVP is live) will cover in-platform messaging, user ratings, paid or featured listings and ad location on maps. Design A UI/UX designer with proven experience on classifieds or marketplace sites is essential. I want a clean, mobile-first interface that feels familiar yet modern for Egyptian users. Process I fund by milestones, expect weekly progress reports and like to check in quickly over Zoom, WhatsApp or Slack. The timeline is tight—please state the number of weeks you need and attach links to relevant work or a portfolio that shows you can handle both the technology and the domain. If you are a small team that covers full-stack development and UI/UX, great. If you are a solo expert in one area, partner up and apply together; I am ready to move ASAP with the right people.
