Marketplace Development in React & CodeIgniter

I need a complete product-based marketplace built with a React front-end and a CodeIgniter back-end. The React side must be modern, fully responsive, and intuitive for both buyers and sellers, while CodeIgniter should expose a clean REST API and an admin panel that lets me manage users, listings, orders, and payouts without touching the codebase.

Core workflow
• Buyers and sellers create accounts, manage profiles, and log in securely.
• Sellers add products with images, descriptions, and stock levels; buyers browse and search by category, keyword, or price range.
• A shopping cart flows into checkout where users can pay by credit/debit card, PayPal, or bank transfer.
• After payment, orders appear in separate dashboards for buyers and sellers, each showing status updates and messaging for issues or returns.
• The admin panel overrides everything—user control, product moderation, order resolution, and financial reports.

What I value
Clean, well-commented React components (hooks, functional style) and a lightweight CodeIgniter structure that’s easy to extend. Clear separation of concerns, reusable services, and thoughtful data modelling are essential. Frequent, concise updates keep the project moving.

Deliverables
- Fully working marketplace (React front-end, CodeIgniter back-end, MySQL/MariaDB) deployed on my staging server
- Integrated payments: credit/debit, PayPal, bank transfer, all with test credentials and webhooks configured
- Step-by-step documentation covering setup, deployment, and routine maintenance

If you’ve shipped similar marketplaces, I’d love to see them and hear how you’d approach this build.
