EcoScrap
Built by Ratul Saha Roy — comprehensive MERN stack platform for digital scrap collection and recycling, enabling users to sell or donate e-waste while empowering agents and partners. Focused on role-based access, secure transactions, and a responsive UI to promote sustainable waste management through technology.
Details
The Journey
Overview
EcoScrap addresses the need for a digital marketplace in waste recycling, allowing users to request pickups for scrap items, track orders, and manage wallets—all with role-based permissions for users, agents, and admins.
The platform integrates Firebase authentication for secure login, MongoDB for data persistence, and a React frontend for seamless user experiences across devices, ensuring scalability and maintainability as the user base grows.

The Challenge
Traditional scrap collection is inefficient, cash-based, and lacks transparency. Users needed a digital way to sell/donate waste securely, while agents required tools to manage pickups and ensure fair payouts.

The Approach
Developed a full-stack solution with clear API endpoints for CRUD operations, integrated Firebase for auth and real-time updates, and built reusable React components for consistent UI. Prioritized security (e.g., token-based auth) and performance (e.g., pagination for large datasets).

The Outcome
A functional marketplace that digitizes waste recycling, reduces cash transactions, and promotes environmental sustainability. The app supports ongoing growth with modular code and easy deployment via Vercel.
