A proposal to create a system of market stalls that are controlled, rented, and managed by users through a mobile app. Creates flexible and temporary spaces that entrepreneurs, small business owners, and community members can use for certain periods of time and sell their products. Locations of the stalls can be decided by the community as well through a polling system.
