The brief, delivered

You asked for a music version of Teachers Pay Teachers — a two-sided marketplace where musicians sell digital resources to other musicians. What follows is what is actually built and running today, then where it can grow. Nothing here is a mockup: every feature below works on the live site, and you can click through it right now.

What's live today

The whole loop works, end to end

A musician can open a shop, list a resource, and get paid. Another can discover it, buy it, download it, and review it. All of it, working now.

Where it can go next

Ready to grow when you are

These were intentionally left out of the first version to ship a working core fast. Each one is a clear, additive next step — not a rebuild.

Honest status

  • Live and functional — the full buy/sell/get-paid loop works on the deployed site.
  • In test mode — payments currently run on Stripe's test keys, so no real money moves yet. Flipping to live mode is a configuration step, not new work.
  • Demo content — the shops and resources on the site are sample data to explore; they're cleared before a real launch.
  • Next for launch — a custom domain and the "launch hardening" items above.

See it for yourself

The marketplace is live — browse it, open a shop, run a test purchase.
