Build a driving-school student booking app with Grok Bot

Try it yourself

What you get

A booking app for one driving school: students see only open times, drive time is planned between lessons, and repeat weekly lessons stop at hours left and the course deadline.

Tools

• Grok Bot
• Google drive times (per the post)
• Email for sign-in links and confirmations

Time / cost: About two casual days, per @dave_imagines's chief of staff (self-reported)

Steps

1. Write down your rules: lesson length, instructor hours, hours per student, course deadlines.
2. Have the bot build an email-link sign-in that shows each student only open times.
3. Add drive time between lessons and cap weekly repeat bookings by hours left and the deadline.
4. Send test confirmation and cancellation emails, and check the sync with your instructor calendar.

Copy-ready prompt

Build a student booking app for my driving school. Students sign in from a link in their email and see only open lesson times. Use Google drive time between lesson locations so back-to-back bookings are realistic. Let students book a repeat weekly series, but cap it by their hours left and their course deadline. Send confirmation and cancellation emails, and sync bookings with my instructor schedule. Show me the rules and a test run before any real student gets a link.

Watch out: Have a person check the scheduling rules, drive-time math and email sends before live students use it. Build time is the chief of staff's take, shared by @dave_imagines.
