The Challenge & Bottleneck
Core Problem Statement
"Auto service centers struggle with manual scheduling and disjointed communication, leading to operational inefficiencies."
Engineered Solution
Architectural Implementation
Client-Server architecture with a React (Vite) frontend and Express.js REST API. Uses Firebase for secure identity management and Mongoose for MongoDB data interactions.
Engineering Deep Dive
Detailed review of tradeoffs, database models, scaling strategies, and microservices
Structural Trade-offs & Decisions
Chose Firebase for rapid development and security over custom JWT. Combined Material UI and Bootstrap to accelerate UI delivery.
Context & Constraints
- Solves scheduling bottlenecks for local auto repair shops.
- Built with the MERN stack and Firebase for enhanced security.
- Modular architecture ready for future payment processing integration.
