# Build your first marketplace

> Go end-to-end: create a project, approve a seller, list a product, place a split order, and watch a payout settle.

<Note>
  This tutorial is being written. The outline below is the intended structure.
</Note>

<Info>
  **One order, three perspectives.** The same purchase looks different on every surface: the customer sees one checkout, the operator sees an order group with per-seller child orders, and each seller sees only their slice. Keeping those three views straight is the core mental model of a Mercur marketplace — this tutorial walks all three.
