The idea is to share the app that works. So enthusiasts can clone, run it for their cities, customize and compete with Uber within their communities. It's relatively easy to do, because it's the hardest thing for Uber to compete in certain communities. For example, you can add specific vehicle types like boat, truck, rickshaws, bicycle. Also, you can create other types of app based on that (like food/goods delivery applications, etc).

It's Telegram bot and also you can run it as CLI app (PoC). So there are two independent transports at the moment.
