Zizoo - Premier Boat & Yacht Rental Platform

Zizoo is a premier platform that connects boat and yacht owners with individuals looking to rent or charter vessels for vacations, events, and recreational activities. We're dedicated to making boat rentals easy, accessible, and enjoyable for everyone.

Key Features

  • Boat & Yacht Rentals — Find the perfect vessel for your next adventure, from intimate getaways to large-scale events
  • Seamless Owner Connections — Boat owners can list their vessels and connect with qualified renters effortlessly
  • Comprehensive Listings — Detailed information and visuals to help renters make informed decisions
  • Event Campaigns — Discover seasonal promotions and tailored campaigns for every occasion

Technology Stack

Zizoo is built on a modern, scalable technology foundation:

  • React & Next.js — Dynamic, responsive interfaces with server-side rendering
  • Tailwind CSS — Consistent, utility-first styling for rapid development
  • Cypress — Comprehensive end-to-end testing for reliability
  • Twilio — Real-time communication and notifications
  • New Relic — Performance monitoring and analytics
  • Auth0 — Enterprise-grade authentication and user management
  • SendGrid — Email communications and marketing automation
  • i18n — Multi-language support for global reach
  • Strapi — Flexible headless CMS for content management
  • AWS — Scalable cloud infrastructure

My Contributions

  • Feature Development — Implemented key features that enhanced platform functionality and user experience
  • Testing Infrastructure — Integrated comprehensive end-to-end testing to ensure application reliability
  • CMS Platform — Built a robust content management system enabling flexible campaign and event management

Why Zizoo Stands Out

✓ Diverse Inventory — Wide selection of boats and yachts for any occasion
✓ Frictionless Connections — Simplified matching between owners and renters
✓ Enterprise-Grade Reliability — Modern architecture ensuring security, performance, and scalability
