Technology stack

Blijmarkt is built with a modern and scalable technology stack to ensure performance, reliability, and an exceptional user experience. At its core, the application leverages MongoDB as the primary database, a robust NoSQL solution ideal for managing dynamic data structures such as listings and user interactions. MongoDB Atlas powers the database infrastructure, providing a fully managed and secure environment with features like automated backups, scaling, and global distribution.

To enhance search functionality, MongoDB Atlas Search is integrated into the platform. This allows users to find listings quickly and efficiently with advanced search capabilities, such as autocomplete and faceted filtering. These features ensure that users can navigate the marketplace seamlessly, regardless of the volume of data.

The platform is hosted on Vercel, a serverless platform optimized for speed and scalability. With Vercel, Blijmarkt benefits from automatic deployments, global content delivery, and edge caching, enabling fast load times and consistent performance for users around the world. This also supports the use of Next.js, which powers the dynamic and interactive aspects of the marketplace.

Blijmarkt integrates several specialized services to enhance functionality. Inngest is used to handle complex workflows and event-driven processes, ensuring smooth automation for tasks like user notifications and scheduled updates. Twicpics is employed for image optimization, ensuring that product photos load quickly and look sharp on all devices. For real-time features like messaging between buyers and sellers, Ably provides a robust solution that ensures reliable and instantaneous communication.

This technology stack is carefully selected to deliver a seamless, secure, and high-performing marketplace experience. With these tools, Blijmarkt is positioned to scale as it grows while maintaining the features that matter most to its users.
