BookCars is a car rental platform, supplier-oriented, with an admin dashboard for managing car fleets and bookings, as well as a frontend and a mobile app for renting cars.
BookCars is built with React for its powerful rendering capabilities, MongoDB for flexible data modeling, and Stripe for secure payment processing.
With BookCars, you can deploy your own customizable car rental marketplace at minimal cost using the Docker-based setup. The platform integrates Stripe for secure payments and can be efficiently hosted on a 1GB RAM droplet, making it an ideal choice for single/multi-supplier operations looking for a scalable and cost-effective solution. You can deploy this solution for under $5/month using cloud providers like Hetzner or DigitalOcean.
BookCars is designed to work with multiple suppliers. Each supplier can manage his car fleet and bookings from the admin dashboard. BookCars can also work with a single supplier and can be used as a car rental aggregator.
From the admin dashboard, admins can create and manage suppliers, cars, locations, customers and bookings.
When new suppliers are created, they receive an email prompting them to create an account in order to access the admin dashboard and manage their car fleet and bookings.
Customers can sign up from the frontend or the mobile app, search for available cars based on pickup and drop-off points and time, choose a car and complete the checkout process.
A key design decision was made to use TypeScript instead of JavaScript due to its numerous advantages. TypeScript offers strong typing, tooling, and integration, resulting in high-quality, scalable, more readable and maintainable code that is easy to debug and test.
