Laravel Job Board

Self-hosted Laravel starter with Stripe checkout already wired up for paid job listings.

Best for: Laravel developers who want to self-host a from-scratch job board (a la RemoteOK or LaraJobs) with Stripe checkout for paid postings already implemented, not stubbed out.
Skip if: You want a polished, actively-developed product - this began as a YouTube tutorial project, so expect to read the video series or code to understand its conventions, not ongoing feature work.

Laravel Job Board is an open-source job board application built with Laravel and Tailwind CSS, originally developed alongside a YouTube tutorial series so viewers could follow the exact reasoning behind the code. It includes SEO-friendly individual listing pages, user account authentication, and Stripe payment processing for job postings - letting you self-host something in the vein of LaraJobs or RemoteOK rather than pay for a hosted product. The project is MIT-licensed and intentionally small enough to read end to end.

Pros

Stripe payment processing for job listings is already implemented, not left as a TODO - a rarity among free job-board starters.
A companion YouTube tutorial series walks through the reasoning behind the code, which shortens the learning curve for customizing it.
MIT-licensed and small enough - a single Laravel app plus Tailwind, no extra services - to read and understand in an afternoon.

Cons

It's a tutorial project first: maintenance tracks whether the creator revisits the video series, and the repo has had no commits in well over a year as of this review (last push April 2025).
No employer accounts or applicant-tracking flow - "payments" cover buying a listing slot, not a full two-sided marketplace.
Modest adoption (173 GitHub stars) and no documented production case studies beyond the maker's own tutorial use.
