Car Service Center Management Platform
Streamlined automotive repair operations with real-time scheduling
A comprehensive digital solution for auto repair shops to manage appointments, track service history, and handle customer interactions.
The Problem
Auto service centers struggle with manual scheduling and disjointed communication, leading to operational inefficiencies.
Architecture
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.
Scalability
Stateless API design for horizontal scaling on Vercel, with MongoDB Atlas providing managed database scaling and Vite for global CDN delivery.
Performance
Optimized with Vite and SWC for fast reloading, and lightweight Express routing combined with Mongoose query optimizations.
