Developing a Transport App

# Transport App Development Roadmap

Help me plan the development of [APP_NAME], a [APP_TYPE] transport application (e.g., ride-sharing, logistics, school transport, shuttle service) for [TARGET_MARKET].

## App Context
- **Platform:** [PLATFORM] (iOS, Android, or both)
- **Core user roles:** [USER_ROLES] (e.g., rider, driver, dispatcher, admin)
- **Monetization:** [MONETIZATION] (e.g., commission per ride, subscription, SaaS for fleets)
- **Budget:** [BUDGET]
- **Timeline to MVP:** [TIMELINE]

## Development Plan

### 1. Feature Prioritization (MoSCoW)
Categorize features into Must Have, Should Have, Could Have, Won't Have (for MVP) across all user roles.

### 2. Tech Stack Recommendation
Recommend a full-stack solution covering: mobile framework (React Native, Flutter, native), backend language/framework, database, real-time communication (WebSockets), maps API (Google Maps, Mapbox), and payment gateway.

### 3. Database Schema (Key Tables)
Outline the core database tables: users, drivers, rides, locations, payments, ratings — with key fields for each.

### 4. Real-Time Architecture
Explain how to handle real-time driver location tracking and ride matching at scale.

### 5. Safety & Compliance Features
List essential safety features (trip sharing, SOS button, driver verification, insurance) and any regulatory compliance requirements for [TARGET_MARKET].

### 6. Development Sprints (12-Week Plan)
Break the build into 2-week sprints with clear deliverables per sprint.

### 7. Cost Estimate
Provide a rough cost breakdown: design, development, QA, third-party APIs, and first-year infrastructure.
