The heart of the project was to design a high-performance site, accompanied by an intuitive booking module, designed from the outset to offer an experience close to that of a mobile application. To achieve this, I used Symfony and EasyAdmin to create an ergonomic back office, allowing efficient management of bookings and users.
  The booking form a été développé avec Vue.js, garantissant une interface fluide et réactive. Upon arriving on the site, users could enter a departure address, an arrival address, and a time. Thanks to API calls tracing the path between the two points, the journey was calculated in real-time, including the distance in kilometres. This calculation, performed directly in the database, integrated a factor adjustable by the manager to respond to situations such as peak periods. Once the price was displayed, users could finalise their request by submitting the booking. To manage booking statuses, I integrated Symfony workflows. When a request was submitted, an email was automatically sent to the driver to accept or decline the trip. In both cases, the client was immediately informed of their booking status. Finally, a reminder was sent two hours before the journey, to both the driver and the client, to confirm the appointment details. Payment was made directly in the car, which simplified development by avoiding the integration of an online payment solution.

An essential criterion for this project was to design a site offering a user experience similar to that of a mobile application. I therefore made it a priority to optimise the design and interactions for mobile devices, while ensuring fluid and intuitive navigation. Once development was complete, I maintained the site for a year, ensuring its stability and the integration of necessary updates. Furthermore, I supported the company by offering marketing advice to improve their online presence and strengthen user engagement. These recommendations helped increase their visibility and lay the foundations for a sustainable digital strategy.

The main innovation of this webapp lay in its intelligent price calculation system and its dual payment option. Each booking benefited from a precise calculation based on the actual route, with contextual pricing adapted to time slots. The webapp integrated the Google Maps Directions API to calculate the optimal route between the departure and arrival points in real-time. This integration allowed for the exact distance in kilometres to be obtained, taking into account traffic and road conditions, thus ensuring fair and transparent pricing for every trip. The pricing system integrated contextual surcharges: +20% for evening trips and specific fixed rates for weekends. These parameters, configurable from the EasyAdmin back office, allowed the manager to quickly adapt their price list according to demand and operational constraints. Clients had the choice between a secure immediate payment via Stripe or a traditional in-car payment upon pickup. This flexibility met the varied preferences of users while simplifying management for the driver. The Symfony workflow automatically managed state transitions according to the chosen payment method.
