Okay, I can show you how the basic structure would look and function.
(The system simulates running the React application. You would see a webpage with a black header saying "Uber Clone". Below the header, the page is split vertically. On the left, there's a white sidebar area containing a "Where to?" form with input fields for "Pickup Location" and "Drop-off Location", and a "Find Ride" button. Initially, only the form is visible. If you were to fill the form and click "Find Ride", the "Choose a ride" section would appear below the form, listing options like UberX, Comfort, and UberXL with placeholder prices and ETAs, along with a "Confirm Ride" button. The right, larger portion of the screen shows a grey box labeled "Map Placeholder", representing where the interactive map would be.)
I cannot directly create a zip file for you. However, you can easily create this project yourself using the code provided previously:
npx create-react-app uber-clone-app (or use Vite: npm create vite@latest uber-clone-app -- --template react).cd uber-clone-app.src/components directory.Header.jsx, Header.css, Map.jsx, Map.css, BookingForm.jsx, BookingForm.css, RideOptions.jsx, RideOptions.css, App.jsx, App.css, index.jsx, index.css, public/index.html) from my previous response into the corresponding file paths within your new project. Make sure to replace the default files created by create-react-app or Vite.npm start or yarn start in your terminal.This will start the development server, and you can view the basic Uber clone interface in your browser.
Okay, transforming the basic structure into something closer to a real-world application involves integrating several APIs and libraries. This setup focuses on the frontend integration, particularly mapping, geocoding, and routing, using Mapbox as an example.
Note: This requires a Mapbox access token. You'll need to sign up on the Mapbox website to get one. It also simulates backend interactions for ride options and pricing. A full real-world app needs a dedicated backend server and database.
To make this work:
"YOUR_MAPBOX_ACCESS_TOKEN" in the .env file with your actual token.npm install or yarn install in your project directory to add react-map-gl, mapbox-gl, and axios.proxy setting in package.json helps bypass CORS issues during development when calling the Mapbox API directly from the browser. For production, you'd typically route API calls through your own backend.npm start or yarn start) to apply the .env file changes and proxy setting.This setup provides:
Okay, let's switch from the interactive Mapbox GL JS library to using an embedded map approach. We'll use the Google Maps Embed API for this, as it's straightforward for displaying locations and directions within an <iframe>.
Note:
Here are the updated files:
To make this work:
.env as REACT_APP_GOOGLE_MAPS_API_KEY..env as REACT_APP_MAPBOX_TOKEN (for geocoding and directions API).npm uninstall react-map-gl mapbox-gl (or yarn remove react-map-gl mapbox-gl).axios is installed (npm install axios or yarn add axios).npm start or yarn start) to apply changes.Now, the map area will display a Google Map inside an iframe, showing either a default location, the pickup location, or directions between the pickup and dropoff addresses based on the state. The ride options are still calculated using distance/duration obtained from the Mapbox Directions API in the background.
