Our client, Startline Driving School, approached us with the desire to completely digitalize and simplify their daily operations.
The goal was to develop a centralized system that enables management of candidates, instructors, class schedules, payment tracking, and internal communication — all through a single solution.
Until then, the driving school had been using manual records and disconnected tools, which often led to scheduling errors, duplicate appointments, and unnecessary administration.
Our Solution
The XUDEV team has designed and developed a complete digital ecosystem that connects administrators, instructors, and candidates via a web platform and mobile applications.
Cilj nam je bio da svaka radnja — od zakazivanja časa do praćenja uplata — bude brza, pregledna i automatski sinhronizovana u realnom vremenu.
1. Key Features
- Administrator Panel – a streamlined dashboard with full control over candidates, instructors, schedules, payments, and reports.
- Class management – planning, canceling and recording theoretical and practical classes.
- Mobile application for instructors – allows you to conduct daily classes, mark attendance, and track candidate progress.
- Mobile application for candidates – view appointments, class history, payment status and receive notifications in real time.
- Notification system – automatic reminders for classes, payments, and school announcements.
- Reports and analytics – financial and student reports available through the web panel.
Technologies
- Backend: Python (FastAPI)
- Frontend: Flutter (for web and mobile apps)
- Database: MariaDB
- Containerization: Docker
- Hosting: Hetzner Cloud
- Version control: GitHub
This combination of technologies has enabled stability, security, and fast data synchronization, with the ability to easily expand the system in the future.
Results
After implementing the system, the driving school's operations underwent a complete transformation:
- More than 70% less administrative work thanks to process digitalization.
- Better communication between instructors and candidates through notifications and messages in the app.
- Automatically resolve scheduling conflicts, without overlapping classes.
- Instant insight into each candidate's status, class history, and financial situation.
- Significantly higher user satisfaction due to the simple and transparent design of the system.
Outcome
The driving school management system has become the central tool of Startline Driving School, replacing all manual records and old Excel spreadsheets.
Now the school operates more efficiently, has better control over processes, and can more easily track the growth and success of its candidates.
Plans for the future
- Adding e-learning modules (online tests, video lessons, theoretical training).
- Integration of online payment and automatic invoicing.
- Advanced analytics and candidate performance prediction.
- Possibility to manage multiple driving schools from one system.
Conclusion
The Startline Driving School Management System project shows how a traditional business can be completely transformed through a smart technology solution.
Using a modern tech stack and careful UX design, XUDEV delivered a stable, modern, and functional system that improved business, facilitated communication, and delivered measurable results.
