Full-Stack Developer Needed for Ethical E-Commerce Platform (Laravel + Vue/React)
Budget: £1,500 – £3,000 GBP
Project Brief: HajiSell Platform Development
Overview:
HajiSell is a spiritually grounded, ethically driven e-commerce platform. It’s more than just a marketplace — it’s designed to give Muslims and ethical sellers a clean, honest, privacy-respecting space to create and manage digital storefronts, powered by our own financial layer (HajiMoney) and ecosystem-wide services like HajiMail and Barakah Metrics.
The system will allow users — individuals, families, or institutions — to:
• Set up their own online storefronts (under HajiSell subdomains)
• List products or services with full media and text control
• Receive payments securely via Stripe and PayPal (possibly crypto or split payments later)
• Manage orders, refunds, messaging, and account settings from a clean dashboard
• Receive Barakah Ratings and non-financial KPIs via our own moderation layer
• Access HajiMail & HajiMoney integrations for email and escrow-style payment tracking
⸻
Stack Preferences:
We are open to Laravel or NodeJS backends.
Frontend should use either Vue.js or React with Tailwind CSS or a modern component framework.
PostgreSQL preferred, but we’re open to MySQL.
⸻
Required Features (Phase 1 – MVP):
1. User Registration & Roles
• Store owner accounts (can apply to open a shop)
• Admin/moderator panel for onboarding and verification
2. Storefront Setup
• Auto-generated HajiSell subdomains for approved sellers
• Ability to upload logo, description, social links, etc.
3. Product Management
• Add/edit/delete items
• Image gallery + rich description editor
• Optional tags (e.g., halal, handmade, digital)
4. Payments & Escrow
• Stripe and PayPal integration (via HajiMoney layer)
• Commission logic
• Order status: Pending, Approved, Delivered, Refunded
5. Dashboard
• Simple interface for tracking sales, payouts, orders
• Message center for buyer–seller interaction
6. Moderation System
• Product approval queue
• Barakah scoring + public “ethics” badge display
• Admin override tools
7. Security & Infrastructure
• Clean API structure
• JWT auth, rate-limiting, spam protection
• Hosted on modular Ubuntu server (integrating later with Mailcow or existing VPS)
⸻
Nice to Have (Phase 2+):
• Mobile PWA
• CSV import/export
• Affiliate logic (reward system tied to Barakah Points)
• Custom HajiSell themes for sellers
⸻
Team Fit:
We’re open to an individual dev or a compact team with clean communication and spiritual sensitivity. They’ll be working alongside our founder, a server engineer, and eventually UI/UX support.
They must understand this is not about fast-selling — it’s about sincerity, integrity, and building tools that uplift the Ummah with honour.
