Barber Discovery and Booking Platform
For this project, I developed Done App, React Native-based platform designed to streamline barber discovery and on-demand home service bookings, transforming the way users connect with barbers. This mobile app leverages Firebase for real-time data management and secure user authentication, offering a comprehensive solution for both clients and barbers. With features like real-time barber tracking, seamless bookings, and integrated payments, Done App brings ease and efficiency to the grooming experience, allowing barbers to arrive at the client’s home at the selected time.
Project Goals
Create a user-friendly platform for discovering barbers and booking home service appointments.
Enable real-time tracking and location updates for barbers traveling to clients’ locations.
Integrate secure user authentication and a smooth payment process.
Allow barbers to create and manage their schedules easily within the app.
Solution Strategy
To meet these goals, the project centered on high usability, real-time data, and seamless functionality:
React Native and Firebase Integration: Built with React Native for cross-platform compatibility, Firebase was integrated to handle real-time data, enabling instant updates and a smooth experience for both iOS and Android users.
Seamless Booking, Home Service, and Payment System: Users can search for nearby barbers, book a home service at their preferred time, and complete payments within the app. This on-demand setup simplifies the client’s grooming experience, bringing the barber directly to their home.
Real-Time Tracking of Barber Location: Inspired by Uber’s model, the app includes live GPS tracking, allowing clients to view their barber’s location and estimated arrival time as they travel to the client’s home.
Comprehensive User Profiles: Both users and barbers can create profiles that showcase services, availability, and ratings, making it easy for clients to select the right barber and for barbers to manage their schedules.
Schedule Creation and Management: Barbers can set their availability and manage bookings with a flexible schedule management tool, optimizing their workflow and meeting client needs effectively.
The Done App successfully connects clients and barbers, transforming home grooming appointments into a convenient, reliable service.
