[SkillSwap]
A marketplace where talent is the currency.
Trade what you know. Get what you need.
The idea is simple: not everyone can afford to hire a freelancer. But almost everyone has a skill worth trading. SkillSwap lets you post what you offer, browse what others offer, and either pay — or propose a skill-for-skill swap. No money needed.
A logo designer who needs a website. A developer who needs a logo. They find each other, they swap, and both walk away with something real.
— Starting from the AI base
SkillSwap began with a single, detailed prompt. I structured it carefully — the app's purpose, every screen it needed, the full database, the workflows, and the visual direction. Bubble AI generated the entire scaffold on the first try. Ten pages, six data types, core workflows all wired in. Navigation in place, listings working, swap proposal flow live — not a skeleton I had to rebuild from scratch.
From there I used Bubble's AI agent to move fast. Refining layouts, polishing the card grid, tuning the filter logic and swap modal — iterating in minutes instead of hours.
— What SkillSwap does
You post a skill listing — paid, open to swap, or both.
Others browse, filter by category, and either hit Book Now or Propose a Swap — offering one of their own skills in return.
Once a deal is accepted, a chat thread opens automatically between both users to coordinate the work.
After the exchange, both sides leave a review. Ratings build reputation. The platform gets better with every swap.
— Category: Marketplace
SkillSwap is built around a real economic gap — talented people who are locked out of freelance platforms simply because they don't have money to spend upfront. The barter layer doesn't replace the paid model. It sits alongside it, making the platform useful for everyone.
It's practical, it's fresh, and it's the kind of thing you'd actually use.
Trade your skills. Grow without spending. That's SkillSwap.
Tools Used:
Idea was mine, enhanced the idea by Claude ai and it generated the prompt , and rest Bubble AI Builder handles it well.
I know it is not completed fully and also I not a expert in website designing, but did my best since only 1 day was left for me since I came to know, did whatever I could have done in that time span. Could have done much better but it would have taken a lot of time.
Thank You for reading here till now!
Have A Great Day!

Hi all! I've spent most of my career as an illustrator, and these days, I treat my daily sketchbook warmup as a form of meditation.
It's hard to stay connected to our instinct, but if we force ourselves to draw quickly, we keep that self-trust muscle ripped! So, I developed an app to help with that :)
I created a timed gesture drawing app that allows the user to share their artwork in the community tab once they've finished their daily exercise.
I hope this social element helps to connect fellow artists over a shared practice while shedding the need for perfectionism; this is something I think many have been craving on other platforms.
• Foundation created using Bubble
• UI design fine-tuned by me and implemented using Omma
• Live app available here!
I'll add my process in the comments!
ArtisanSync — Nigeria‑First Services Marketplace
Category: Marketplace
ArtisanSync is a role‑based services marketplace built from a Bubble AI‑generated foundation and extended with custom logic and interface refinement.
I contracted @claude to help me craft the perfect Bubble AI prompt then started with one prompt to @bubble AI — and it gave me a solid foundation. Role separation, an escrow ledger structure, a discovery layout. But it left the soul out. No real data. No Nigerian market context. No working calculations. No validation. That's where I came in.
I then refined the experience layer by adding:
• A fully structured artisan discovery grid
• Real Naira‑based cost calculations
• Automatic 10% loyalty discount for long projects
• Role‑based dashboards (Client & Artisan)
• Session‑based authentication flow
• Animated brand identity and motion transitions
• A project recommendation assistant
Bubble laid the foundation. Claude was my artisan. I was the client who knew what the market needed.
Instead of leaving the AI output as a template, I used AI as a directional tool — treating it as a skilled collaborator rather than a replacement for product thinking.
ArtisanSync is built for Lagos and beyond, with architecture that can scale globally.

Please like and vote due to time of seeing this and end date, it wasn't perfect.
Thank You.😊
