Plazly
Plazly is a mobile real-estate marketplace where buyers and tenants can browse a personalized home feed, search properties by title or city, filter by type, bedrooms, and price range, save favourites, explore photo galleries with maps, and contact agents directly via WhatsApp. Behind the scenes, an admin panel lets the owner create listings (with up to 6 photos), mark properties as featured or sold, edit, and delete them. Built with Expo (React Native) and fully branded with custom typography and a light/dark theme, Plazly is backed by Supabase for data and storage, Clerk for authentication, and Expo Push Notifications for opt-in listing alerts.
