Tasleem Taxi
Real-time ride-hailing platform with live driver tracking and admin controls.
Client Overview
Tasleem Taxi is a ride-hailing platform with mobile apps for drivers and riders, a customer-facing web experience, and an admin console for fleet operations. We engineered the real-time tracking layer, the RESTful API architecture, and the containerized deployment that keeps the service scalable across a growing user base.

The Challenges
Streaming live driver and rider locations with low latency over unstable mobile networks.
Designing a clean RESTful API that serves both the rider app, the driver app, and the admin console.
Containerizing the stack for reliable, reproducible deployments on Digital Ocean.
Keeping the codebase modular so new ride types and regions could be added without rewrites.
Solutions & Strategies
Real-Time Tracking
- Built a real-time location pipeline so riders see drivers move live and dispatch sees the full fleet map.
- Optimized location update frequency to balance accuracy with battery and data cost on mobile.
Unified API Architecture
- Designed a single RESTful API serving the rider app, driver app, and admin dashboard.
- Modeled trips, payments, and dispatch as composable resources for future expansion.
Deployment & Scalability
- Containerized the backend and supporting services for consistent local-to-prod parity.
- Deployed on Digital Ocean with a structure ready to scale horizontally as demand grows.
