Project ideas that fit local markets

Pick one. Finish it. Do not start a platform.

Each idea already happens with a notebook or a WhatsApp group. Your page should be faster than the notebook, not more famous than the group.

1. Market price list

For a stall or a small shop. When someone asks “how much today?” this page shows names, units, and prices.

Acceptance:

• Five or more items, each with a unit (rubber, crate, litre, trip).
• A visible “Last checked” date.
• Readable in one hand, outdoors.
• No login. Currency people around you actually use.

See the Learn to Code project.

2. Fees tracker

For a class, association, or church dues secretary. When someone asks who has paid. this page lists names and a paid / not-paid mark.

Acceptance:

• At least eight names you are allowed to use (or clear placeholders).
• A total of “paid” you can explain.
• Works if the secretary is offline after the first load.
• No payment button. You are not MoMo.

3. Church or group roster

For the person who already keeps the list. When someone needs a phone number or a role this week.

Acceptance:

• Name, role, and one contact method.
• Search or filter that works with a thumb.
• A note that the list is not a public directory if it should not be.
• No photos you do not have permission to show.

Build the filter in A list you can search.

4. Small shop catalog

For a kiosk that already writes items on cardboard. When a regular wants to see what is in.

Acceptance:

• Item, price, and “available / ask”.
• Ten items is plenty.
• One WhatsApp link, not five social icons.
• Page weight small enough to open on mobile data.
