Mobile App Developer for Doctor Booking & Pharmacy Bidding Platform

**Title:** Mobile App Developer for Doctor Booking & Pharmacy Bidding Platform (3 Apps + Backend) **Description:** We're looking for an experienced developer or team to build a healthcare platform for the Zimbabwean market. It has one central backend and database that holds all business logic, plus three mobile apps for Android and iOS: 1. **Patient App:** patients view doctors' calendars and book available slots. They can also "float" prescriptions to pharmacies, who bid for them inDrive-style. The patient accepts a bid, pays online or chooses cash, and collects from the pharmacy. 2. **Doctor App:** doctors manage their availability and bookings, and issue verified prescriptions directly to patients. 3. **Pharmacy App:** pharmacies view floated prescriptions, place bids, and fulfil winning orders for collection. Key features include real-time calendar availability and live bidding, two ways for prescriptions to enter the system (doctor-issued or patient-uploaded), and online payment integration alongside cash. The full requirements document is attached. In your proposal, please include: - Your proposed tech stack and why - How you'd handle real-time bidding and live updates - Experience with payment integrations, ideally Zimbabwean providers - A timeline broken into milestones, with a cost for each - Examples of similar work (marketplace, booking or bidding apps) - Your testing, app store deployment and post-launch support terms We're open to discussing the remaining edge cases in the document with the right developer. **Skills:** Mobile App Development, Flutter or React Native, Backend Development, Real-time Systems, Payment Gateway Integration, API Development
