Act as an Expert Full-Stack Developer and System Architect. I want to build a comprehensive Real Estate Platform for Buying, Selling, and Renting properties. Please provide a complete project architecture, database schema, and step-by-step development plan based on the following requirements. 1. Tech Stack: Frontend: React.js (or Next.js) with Tailwind CSS for a responsive, modern UI. Backend: Python (Django REST Framework or FastAPI). Database: PostgreSQL. 2. Core Features: User Roles: Buyers/Renters, Sellers/Landlords, and Admin. Authentication: Secure login/signup (Email, Google OAuth). Property Listings: Users can upload property details, high-quality images, and specify furnishing status. Smart Filtering System: > * Category: Buy, Rent, Commercial. Configuration: 1BHK, 2BHK, 3BHK, 4+BHK. Dynamic Budget Sliders (Min to Max). Property Status (Ready to move, Under construction). 3. Advanced / Standout Features: Recommendation Engine: Suggest similar properties based on the user's search history and clicked properties (using Python). Location Intelligence: Google Maps or Mapbox API integration to show nearby amenities (schools, hospitals, transit). Trust & Verification: "Verified Owner" badges for sellers who submit valid documents. Financial Tools: An interactive EMI Calculator and Rental Yield widget on the property details page. Communication: An in-app direct messaging system or WhatsApp API integration for buyers and sellers to connect. Your Task: Database Schema: Provide the essential tables and their relationships (e.g., Users, Properties, Messages). API Endpoints: List the core REST API endpoints needed for this platform. Folder Structure: Suggest a clean folder structure for both the frontend and backend. Phase 1 Execution: Give me the exact terminal commands and initial code structure to set up the foundation of this project today.
