Salon Booking & Management Platform

About

A production-ready, full-stack salon and beauty business management platform built with Next.js, React, TypeScript and Supabase.

This is a reusable, white-label software project designed for salons, spas, beauty studios, hair salons, nail salons, barbershops and other appointment-based businesses.

The current implementation demonstrates the platform through a premium salon experience, but the software architecture is designed to be rebranded, customized and adapted for other businesses.

Core Platform

The platform combines a complete customer website with online booking, customer management, payments, notifications and a powerful administrative backoffice.

Customer Experience

• Service catalog with categories, pricing and durations
• Service search and filtering
• Interactive service details
• Online appointment booking
• Staff/specialist selection
• Date and time-slot selection
• Availability and booking conflict validation

• Customer profile / VIP portal
• Appointment history
• Saved services
• Customer reviews and ratings
• Before/after gallery
• Image and video gallery
• FAQ and contact system
• Arabic + English bilingual support
• Full RTL/LTR interface support

Complete Booking System

The booking engine supports the complete appointment lifecycle:

Service → Staff → Date & Time → Customer Details → Payment → Confirmation

It includes:

• Appointment creation
• Availability validation
• Time-slot generation
• Existing appointment conflict checking
• Booking status management
• Payment status management
• Customer booking history

Payment System

The platform includes a flexible payment architecture designed to integrate with online payment providers.

The payment layer supports:

• Online payment processing

• Cancelled payment handling
• Secure server-side credentials

• Currency and transaction validation
• Automated payment testing infrastructure

The payment architecture is intentionally separated from the core booking system so that payment providers can be replaced or extended as needed.

Notification & Communication System

The platform is structured to support automated customer communication throughout the booking lifecycle.

Notification integrations can be connected for:

• Booking confirmation
• Payment confirmation
