A budget friendly car pool solution designed and developed on ReactJS and backend supported on Nodejs with SQL Database.

Overview

Gari Karo is a car pooling management system which helps users to find rides in a short period of time. It not only aids travelers but also drivers who are traveling alone can ask for fellow passengers through our application. Initially this project is aimed for the students of FAST NUCES-Karachi only.

Project Goals

• Functional Goals: It allows users to add a new ride and search for available rides using the source and destination feature. In terms of authentication purposes , the user will be notified of a verification while signing up.
• Technological Goals: Location analysis through Google maps is the backbone of our project. The application will search for the intersection between the user’s route and all available rides and suggest a shortest possible route to the user.
• Quality Goals: The proposed system is user friendly. Good communication will be established between admin and users. Details of drivers and users will be maintained through the database.

Proposed Solution

The project will deliver a solution to improve the mobility of our students through carpooling, a way through which drivers can share their private vehicle in order to split the cost and users can request a comfortable ride at reasonable rates. Our project work will go through the conceptual phase first and then the development phase.
