Welcome to the HireBuddy project wiki 👋
This wiki documents the vision, architecture, and development journey of HireBuddy as it is built in public.
HireBuddy is a local task-helper platform designed to solve everyday problems — small errands, one-off tasks, and local help — in a simple, trustworthy, and practical way.
The focus is on:
- Real-world usability
- Minimal but scalable architecture
- Trust, safety, and transparency
- Gradual open-sourcing and community learning
- Build a working product from scratch in public
- Prioritize simplicity over premature complexity
- Design for real users, not just demos
- Share decisions, trade-offs, and learnings
- Open-source components incrementally
- React Native (Android-first)
- Clean, minimal UI
- Focus on task posting & helper discovery
- REST / GraphQL APIs
- Authentication & user trust layer
- Task lifecycle management
- Scalable, cloud-friendly design
- Security by design
- Scalability without over-engineering
- Clear boundaries between components

HireBuddy is being built in public:

- Mistakes and rewrites included
- No “perfect code” illusion
The goal is learning, transparency, and building something useful.
Contribution guidelines will be added once the core structure stabilizes.
Planned contribution areas:
- UI/UX improvements
- Bug fixes
- Documentation
- Feature discussions
- GitHub Repository: https://github.com/priyanandrai/hirebuddy
Ideas, feedback, and constructive discussions are always welcome.
This project is about solving small problems well.
