Dotmarket.eu - Achat / vente de business web
A competent developer can build a usable listing-and-contact replacement, but Dotmarket's vetted analysis, brand trust, and transaction/closing services are durable parts of the paid product that are costly to reproduce.

Open-source builds that already do this
Every project below is open source and already does this job today. Fork one, self-host it, or take the parts you need - the build prompt further down assumes an empty file, and this is the shortcut past that. Licences differ; check the one on each card before you ship. All Dotmarket.eu - Achat / vente de business web alternatives, with the arithmetic →
What a replacement has to do

What we assumed
The verdict above measures whether you could build it. This one is only about money.
Runnable build prompt
Build a minimal marketplace web app using Django + PostgreSQL backend and React frontend, deployed on a single VPS (DigitalOcean). Core features in scope: user auth and profiles, listing CRUD with images and metadata, searchable catalog with filters and pagination, favorites/bookmarks, contact form that stores messages and sends transactional email (SendGrid/Mailgun), and an admin dashboard for approving listings and viewing simple analytics. Out of scope: escrow/payments, formal valuation/due-diligence workflows, events/coaching modules, premium education content. Require input validation, error handling, unit and integration tests for API endpoints, basic CI, and documentation for setup and deployment.
