NXTWISH - Portfolio

NxtWish is an online marketplace for rentals in the UAE. Nxtwish was born, when the founders spotted a few challenges almost everyone in our society has to deal with on a regular basis: you bought your camping gear, only to be used once or twice, or you would like to own a few bicycles, to go for a ride with the family now and then, or you want to invest in that new tennis racket but would like to test it before the purchase, or you´d like to rent a costume for the theme party. The list goes on...

Nxtwish is easy to use, a secure online platform that brings Owners and Renters together. Rent your unused camping gear out and earn money! Rent bicycles whenever you are ready to go for a ride and don´t worry about storage or maintenance! Rent the tennis racket you love and try it out before deciding to purchase it! Rent that Ironman costume you need and don't worry about bad investment! Best of all... Renting reduces waste, and helps you contribute to the sharing economy. Go Nxtwish... Go Green...

This rental marketplace is based on the Sharetribe open-source platform, which we customised to fit the customer needs. Those customizations included responsiveness introduction for all of the device classes, refactoring the codebase to eliminate the numerous bugs left by previous developers, improve UI and UX workflow.
