GaragePass
LiveGaragePass solves the fragmented garage-booking experience by providing a dual-sided marketplace. Drivers discover, compare, and book automotive services in a few clicks, while garage owners manage listings, availability, and revenue from a single dashboard. Built on the MERN stack (MongoDB, Express, React, Node.js) with Firebase Authentication for secure sign-in, Google Cloud services for geocoding and notifications, and Stripe Connect for split payments. I designed the data model, implemented the REST API, built the React front-end, and set up the CI/CD pipeline on Vercel.
