TAZABEET — Home Services Booking Platform (Backend API)

TAZABEET is a home-services marketplace that connects customers with trusted professionals for everyday jobs — plumbing, electrical work, cleaning, painting, carpentry, AC repair, pest control and more. Customers book a service, attach photos or video of the problem, approve a final price, and review the work once it's done. Workers get a dashboard to manage jobs and track wallet earnings, while admins oversee users, services, bookings and complaints.

This page documents the backend API that powers the platform. The customer-facing React web app lives separately at tazabeet.vercel.app.

Originally built as a graduation project — the system-analysis phase (users, requirements, and the service-booking flow) was turned into a working full-stack platform.

What this service is

A Node.js + Express REST API backed by MongoDB (via Mongoose). It powers authentication, the booking lifecycle, worker scheduling, messaging, notifications, reviews, promo codes, wallet transactions, an AI assistant, and admin management — serving the React frontend and any other authorized client over HTTPS.

The live API responds at tazabeet-backend.vibenest.net — a plain GET / returns TAZABEET Backend is running.
