At a glance

The community member is planning to build a Webflow-based community site where users can share and upvote savings deals. They are considering using Relume components, Memberstack for user memberships, Finsweet for search and filtering, and Jetboost for upvoting/downvoting functionality. The community member is open to feedback and suggestions on their plan. Another community member suggests using Jetboost for both filters/search and upvoting/downvoting, as Finsweet and Jetboost may not work well together.

Can someone sense check my plan for a Webflow community site where users can share and upvote savings deals? I’ll leaning on Relume components for a lot of it. Open this comment to see a breakdown.

I want to build something more challenging and learn along the way so I thought I could try recreating most of the functionality of HotUKDeals.

Can you take a look at the below and let me know if you’d do something differently, or use different plugins all together?

Functionality needed:

User memberships
Users comments/saving posts/profiles
Ability to upvote or downvote posts (Deals)
Search and filtering

Tools and plugins i’ve selected for to achieve the above:

Memberstack
Finsweet (search & filters, and other)
Jetboost (upvoting/downvoting)

I thought about Webflow’s native memberships functionality but it seems limited when compared to what Memberstack can do.

Open to feedback and criticisms!

since you are already using Jetboost, I would just use that filters/search - its a lot easier and a lot less complex to implement. Also Finsweet + Jetboost do not play well together.
