Building your own ride share app
summary
Step-by-step recipe for a rideshare app: get user and driver locations with a positioning API, show them on a map with a Maps SDK, convert lat/lng to addresses via reverse geocoding and give suggestions with a places API and autocomplete, compute routes and ETAs with a Routing API (enable traffic) and filter reachable drivers using isoline routing, snap noisy traces with route-match, generate map images for receipts, and note a freemium quota of 250k transactions/month then ~$1 per 1k.
