Frontstead Kit vs Shineing Digital Real Estate Solution

Frontstead Kit is a free, open-source, MLS-ready development kit for building branded real-estate portals, including golf, waterfront, and other niche lifestyle markets. It combines a Next.js public portal, an Express 5 and Prisma REST API, and a separate RESO Web API synchronization worker. The portal supports property search, listing pages, inquiries, consumer accounts, and favorites. Supported MLS connector vendors listed are MLS Grid, Trestle, Bridge Interactive, and Spark API. Typesense can provide typo-tolerant search; without it, the kit uses PostgreSQL search. Node.js 22.12 and PostgreSQL are required, while Redis and Typesense are optional. Docker Compose is the documented portable deployment baseline, and Frontstead says no specific platform is assumed. MLS display controls start disabled, and unregistered MLS boards cause configuration to fail. The agent API is disabled by default. The project is community-supported through public repository issues. Agent HQ is separately licensed and adds CRM features. The free plan is free and self-hosted.
