Ride-Hailing, Taxi Booking & On-Demand Rides

A complete ride-hailing, taxi booking, and on-demand mobility platform built with React Native for iOS and Android. The system is designed to manage large fleets, assign rides efficiently, and provide real-time visibility to both passengers and drivers.

The app integrates interactive maps, AI-powered GPS routing, and off-route detection, offering dynamic alerts whenever a driver deviates from the optimal route. Passengers can view estimated arrival times, pricing options, driver details, and live trip progress with high accuracy.

The platform focuses heavily on UX and reliability, featuring:

• Seamless onboarding with phone, email, or social authentication
• Rich driver and passenger profile management
• Trip scheduling and instant ride requests
• Smart destination prompts based on user history
• Multi-option pricing (economy, standard, premium)
• Secure in-app payment workflows
• Integrated communication tools (chat + call)
• Trip receipts with mileage, time, and route stats

The front-end is built using a modular React Native architecture, optimized for performance, offline caching, and fast map rendering even on low-end devices.

To handle location-heavy operations, the system uses:

• PostGIS-powered geofencing to detect zone entry/exit, unauthorized actions, or unusual behaviors
• Advanced routing logic that recalculates navigation based on traffic and route changes
• Apache Kafka real-time streams for:
  • Location updates
  • Trip status transitions
  • Driver availability
  • Notifications and alerts
  • Fraud or anomaly detection

This architecture enables the platform to support thousands of concurrent users while maintaining consistent real-time communication.

The backend system includes:

• Role-based dashboards for drivers, fleet managers, and support teams
• Real-time monitoring of active rides, idle vehicles, and heatmaps of demand
• Automated driver assignment with smart matching algorithms
• Incident logging and safety workflows
• Pricing engine that adapts to distance, demand, time of day, and service type

Admins can also review driver performance, route efficiency, cancellation rates, and peak-hour analytics through a dedicated React Native-powered admin panel, optimized for tablets and cross-platform use.

By combining AI navigation, geospatial analytics, and high-frequency event streaming, the platform delivers:

• Faster and more reliable routes
• Improved safety through real-time monitoring
• Reduced wait times for passengers
• Better transparency and accountability for drivers
• Highly scalable operations for growing fleets

This project highlights my expertise in high-performance mobility platforms, map-heavy applications, and real-time distributed systems using React Native and modern backend technologies.
