The showcase was a Barcelona market: Catalan names, +34 numbers, euro rates and "Carrer Example 12" on every job. Presented to a Mexican client, all of that reads as somebody else's product. City comes from NEXT_PUBLIC_CITY_* as before, now Ciudad de México at 19.4326/-99.1332, with MAPBOX_COUNTRY=mx. The seed's fallbacks were Barcelona literals, so an unset env quietly seeded a different city than the app rendered — they now agree. Two db tests pinned the Barcelona centre as a hardcoded constant, which is why the deck returned zero cards on the first run here: every pro was a continent outside the radius. They read the same env as the seed now, so the trap cannot recur. Money: formatCents defaults to USD/en-US, and the nine hardcoded euro signs across the card, search rows, quote strip and forms are dollars. The rate NUMBERS are unchanged and still read high for CDMX — that is a pricing decision, not a currency one, and is left alone deliberately. Seed people are Mexican, addressed on real Roma/Condesa streets rotated by index rather than one placeholder repeated. Phones moved to +52 55, which moves the demo login to +525500000000 / 000000. Also in here, from the same session: - Sending a job now confirms. The mutation always succeeded; the sheet just closed with no receipt, which from the customer's side is indistinguishable from a dead button. Dismissing that receipt resolves as 'sent', so the card does not return to the deck. - Media moves to DigitalOcean Spaces, with the public origin derived from bucket and region instead of a second env var to keep in sync. - Managed-Postgres TLS: DATABASE_CA_CERT takes a path or inline PEM. - The client-facing project panel beside the running app. - Two profiles removed and four renamed to match their photos.

Linkdr
Swipe-to-hire marketplace for local professional services. A client describes a job once, then swipes through verified local pros — plumbers, electricians, handymen. A right swipe sends the job to that pro; the pro accepts; chat, quote, booking, escrow payment and reviews all happen in the app.
Web first. The API layer is designed so a React Native app can reuse it verbatim.
Status
M0 — foundation. Complete and verified.
| Milestone | State |
|---|---|
| M0 Foundation — monorepo, Postgres+PostGIS, schema, CI, app shell | ✅ done |
| M1 Auth & profiles | ⬜ next |
| M2 Verification & admin queue | ⬜ |
| M3 The deck (jobs, swipes, requests, matches) | 🟡 deck query + swipe UI working; needs auth + tRPC |
| M4 Chat & scheduling | ⬜ |
| M5 Payments & escrow | ⬜ |
| M6 Reviews & ranking | ⬜ |
| M7 Launch readiness | ⬜ |
Quick start
pnpm install
cp .env.example .env # ports 5442 / 6389 to avoid clashing with other local stacks
pnpm services:up # postgres+postgis and redis in docker
pnpm db:migrate
pnpm db:seed
pnpm dev # http://localhost:3000
The landing page lists the seeded job. Open its deck to swipe.
Layout
apps/web Next.js 15 (App Router) — client, pro and admin UIs
apps/worker BullMQ worker (M3+): request expiry, payouts, reminders
packages/shared money, state machines, ranking weights, zod schemas — no I/O, fully unit tested
packages/db Drizzle schema, migrations, the deck query
packages/api tRPC routers (M1) — the contract mobile will reuse
packages/ui shared components (M1)
Where the important decisions live
packages/shared/src/state-machines.ts— every legal status transition. Mutations must callassertTransition; nothing jumps fromscheduledtocompletedbecause a payload said so.packages/shared/src/ranking.ts— the deck scoring weights. This is the product; expect to tune it weekly against booking conversion.packages/shared/src/money.ts— integer cents only.splitChargealways sums back to the original amount.packages/db/src/queries/deck.ts— the deck query. Filtering runs in Postgres on a GiST index (ST_DWithin), ranking runs in JS so the weights stay tunable.
Testing
pnpm test # everything
pnpm --filter @linkdr/shared test # 46 unit tests, no database needed
pnpm --filter @linkdr/db test # 18 integration tests, needs a seeded database
The seed is deterministic: every pro sits at a known distance and bearing from the city centre, and the fixture job sits exactly at the centre. So the expected deck is an exact list, not a vague "roughly the nearby ones". The seed deliberately includes pros that must not appear:
| Pro | Why they must be excluded |
|---|---|
| Pau Ribas | 22 km away but only travels 5 km |
| Unverified Ulla | 1 km away, verification still pending |
| Away Arnau | verified, but is_accepting_jobs = false |
Notes and gotchas
- PostGIS type generation. drizzle-kit quotes type names it does not recognise, which turns
geography(Point,4326)into an invalid quoted identifier.packages/db/scripts/fix-postgis.mjsunquotes them and runs automatically as part ofpnpm db:generate. If you ever rundrizzle-kit generatedirectly, run the script afterwards. - Geography, not geometry. Distances come back in metres and
ST_DWithinis correct anywhere without picking a projection per city. Do not replace it with hand-rolled haversine — it will not use the GiST index. - Ports. Postgres is on
5442and Redis on6389, not the defaults, so the stack can run alongside other local projects. - The swipe write is currently a Next server action (
apps/web/src/app/deck/[jobId]/actions.ts) and trusts the caller. It moves into a tRPC procedure with a real session check in M1/M3. It must not ship as-is. pnpm db:seedtruncates everything. It is for local and CI only.
Before taking real money
Flagged in the plan, unresolved by design — these are business decisions, not code:
- Escrow. Holding client funds between charge and transfer is escrow-adjacent. Stripe Connect separate charges & transfers is the sanctioned marketplace pattern, but confirm the specific flow, merchant-of-record and VAT/invoicing position for your jurisdiction with Stripe.
- Cold start. 30–50 verified pros must exist in the launch city before any client opens the app. An empty deck kills the product on day one. This is the real launch blocker, not code.
- Trade liability. Licence and insurance checks are the legal exposure of the whole business. The admin review queue in M2 is not an afterthought.
