Booking backed by real operational needs

MeetBarbers is a multi-tenant booking platform for barber shops. A shop can manage its services, staff, schedules and appointments, while customers book through a public storefront. The beta has been used by a barber shop for real appointment bookings. Product development covers the full-stack implementation, with AI coding tools integrated into the engineering process. Work is shaped by practical feedback from the business using it.

Engineering priorities

  • Tenant boundaries: shop-scoped data access and authenticated dashboard operations keep each business's records separate at the application level.
  • Booking reliability: server-side availability checks, transactional conflict checking and idempotent creation help handle competing requests and retries.
  • Email delivery: a durable, SES-backed outbox separates booking operations from email delivery and supports retry handling.
  • Public data: route-specific data selection exposes the information required for booking without returning internal customer or appointment lists.

Authentication, storage and billing

The application uses Supabase Auth, PostgreSQL through Prisma, Cloudflare R2 for uploaded media, and Amazon SES through Nodemailer for transactional email. Stripe Checkout, the customer portal and webhooks support shop subscription billing. Shop subscription billing is separate from a customer's payment for a haircut. SMS notifications are planned work and are not claimed as a current feature in this case study.

Technologies

React, Next.js, TypeScript, Prisma, PostgreSQL, Supabase Auth, Cloudflare R2, AWS SES, Nodemailer, Stripe and Tailwind CSS.

Current status

MeetBarbers is a working beta under continued development, shaped by practical feedback from the business using it.
