RentEV - Electric Vehicle Rental Platform
RentEV is a comprehensive electric vehicle rental platform consisting of two separate React Native applications built with Expo SDK 50. The platform enables a peer-to-peer marketplace where electric vehicle owners can list their vehicles for rent and earn income, while renters can browse and book available electric vehicles. The Owner App allows vehicle owners to list vehicles, manage rental requests, and track usage and earnings. The Renter App provides users with the ability to browse available electric vehicles, submit rental requests, and manage their bookings. Built as a group project with modern React Native development practices, the platform supports cross-platform deployment on iOS, Android, and web platforms.
