Senior Node/Laravel Car Rental Site

Bids with no notes will be ignored.

I’m kicking off a six-month build of a full-featured car-rental platform and I want to partner with one experienced individual—no agencies—to see it through from architecture to launch. Your background must include previous work on car-rental or closely related booking products, and you’ll be working either in Node.js or Laravel (whichever you feel strongest with).

Core modules I need you to own
• A real-time booking system with fleet availability management
• Secure payment processing (Stripe is my current preference, but I’m open to your recommendation)
• A customer review engine tied to completed rentals
• Robust user authentication and account dashboards

Design direction
The front-end should feel classic and minimalistic: clean typography, intuitive layouts, and zero clutter while still being responsive across devices. If you’re comfortable driving that UX yourself or collaborating with a designer, let me know in your bid.

Project rhythm
I’ll map milestones at roughly monthly intervals so we can iterate on features, test, and harden security. I’m happy to set up weekly check-ins and maintain the repo on GitHub. You’ll have direct access to me for quick decisions and feedback.

What to include in your bid
• A short note on past car-rental (or comparable booking) projects, with links if public
• Which stack you’d choose—Node.js or Laravel—and why
• Tools you typically use for CI/CD, testing, and deployments
• Earliest date you can start and weekly hours you can dedicate

I’m ready to move fast once I find the right fit; if you have the rental domain know-how and can commit long-term as a solo developer, I look forward to hearing from you.
