Project overview
About this project.
VIRA is a two-sided platform for the beauty and cosmetics sector — women's salons. It combines two
things most booking apps keep apart: an appointment system and a shopping system. A client books
a service — hair, nails, treatments — and chooses not just the time but the individual specialist she
wants to be served by, and she can buy the salon's products in the same flow.
Four surfaces:
- Client mobile app — discovery, booking, products.
- Salon mobile app — the salon's own day-to-day management.
- Salon web portal — the fuller back office for the business.
- Super admin — platform control over categories, businesses, cities, tags and reporting.
Customers browse businesses by category and city,
see ratings, price ranges, working hours and services, and book a slot — choosing the date, the time
against real working hours, a preferred staff member, and paying cash or card. Businesses manage
themselves from their own app: profile and logo, gallery slider, locations with map coordinates,
service categories, staff lists, working days and holidays, products with SKU, price and discount,
promo codes, and their social and WhatsApp links.
Above both sits a web admin with two levels — super admin and admin — controlling categories,
businesses, cities, tags, working hours and a reporting system.
The customer app is built as a discovery product, not just a form: search, category rail, spotlight
businesses, recently viewed, top rated, and an offers row, then a business page, a booking flow, and
an appointments screen with upcoming, past and calendar views.
