Listaro | Flutter Classified Ads Marketplace App With Laravel Admin Panel

Most classifieds templates are screens with nothing behind them. You buy 40 beautiful pages, and then you write the server yourself.

Listaro ships all three parts: the Flutter app buyers and sellers use, the Laravel API behind it, and the web admin panel you run the marketplace from. They were built together, against each other, and the API the app talks to is the same one in the download.

It also runs the moment you unzip it. The app opens on bundled sample data — real photos, real categories, real conversations — so every screen works before any server exists. When you are ready, one flag on the build command points it at the API instead:

flutter run --dart-define=LISTARO_API=https://your-server.test/api/v1

No screen changes. The repositories the sample data implements are the same interfaces the API layer implements, which is also what makes swapping in your backend a matter of writing one class.

What is in the box

The app covers the whole life of an ad: browse and search, filter, favourite, post in five steps, chat, negotiate, boost, mark sold, review the other side, and every account screen around it — verification, blocked users, wallet, notifications, help, account deletion.

The thing that makes it classifieds

A marketplace is not a shop. A car needs a year, a mileage and a gearbox; a flat needs rooms, floor area and a floor number; a phone needs storage and condition. A product catalogue cannot express that, and hardcoding it means an app release every time you add a category.

Fields belong to categories, and you define them in the panel. Five types ship — text, number, select, multi-select and boolean. Mark a field filterable and it appears in three places at once: the posting form, the ad detail sheet, and the search filters. No app release, no migration, no deploy.

That single decision is why the admin panel exists at all, and it is the difference between an item you can launch a real marketplace on and one you have to fork.
