I built a web app for a bike valet service at a local hospital. Hundreds of people use it each day to make their bike commute to work easier!

The app lets them scan in/scan out with their employee badge and assigns them a parking space and sends an email to them. Then they can just leave and the valet attendant puts their bike in the right spot.

As they're leaving work they can tap a link in the email that texts the valet attendant that they're on their way so their bike can be pulled to the front and ready for them.

I originally got paid for it but now do maintenance/small updates for free or trade to have them do maintenance work on my bicycle.
