Carpals is a app that safely connects communities and commuters going in the same direction living in the same area to save money, reduce environmental & infrastructural impact by CarPalling.
Karen has a 40-mile commute in Los Angeles, which equates to a 90-minute drive each way. Karen is burning through her money and beating up her car. She'd really love to carpool with someone who lives near her, but she doesn't know how or where or how to meet them.
Someone who cares about traffic
Someone who does not have reliable transport and need to carpool.
Someone who cares about the environment.
Karen is not making enough to finance her commute. The wear and tear on her car and the rising cost of gas is bankrupting her.
- Problem 1 - People spend money on their cars and gas in long and rough stop and go commutes. All the while wear and tear adds up on their cars.
- Problem 2 - Environmental impact of cars on the road
- Problem 3 - Lack of current transportation/car
- Problem 4 - Person concerned with impact on aging US infrastructure
- Problem 5 - Stressed out by commute
- Problem 6- Wants to Meet People
- Problem 7- Karen scored a DUI and still needs to get to work
To safely connect communities and commuters going in the same direction living in the same area to save money, reduce environmental & infrastructural impact by CarPalling.

This is the way you take out your flustrations. Get away from those little Christmas tree things we used to make in school. Isn't it fantastic that you can change your mind and create all these happy things? Everything's not great in life, but we can still find beauty in it.
🚫Replace text below with a description of the API
When you do it your way you can go anywhere you choose. Let your heart take you to wherever you want to be. If I paint something, I don't want to have to explain what it is. A tree needs to be your friend if you're going to paint him. That's a son of a gun of a cloud. Even the worst thing we can do here is good.
🚫Replace text below with a description of the API
Volunteering your time; it pays you and your whole community fantastic dividends. Maybe there's a happy little waterfall happening over here. You can spend all day playing with mountains. We don't have to be committed. We are just playing here. You have freedom here. The only guide is your heart. It's cold, but it's beautiful.

For Front-end testing we're using React Testing Library(RTL) to perform testing of our components. RTL comes packed with a suite of tests.
We're also using code-climate (run as part of our CI/CD process) to determine test coverage and code maintainability.

🚫explain how to install the required dependencies to get this project up and running with yarn and NPM
Use 'npm install' to install all necessary dependencies
🚫replace these examples with your own
* build - creates a build of the application
* start - starts the production server after a build is created; if used locally, creates a local instance of a server at localhost:3000
* eject - used to modify CRA dependencies
*coverage - runs a test coverage report that is displayed t the top of this readme
* test - runs tests in **tests** directory \* eject - copy the configuration files and dependencies into the project so you have full control over them
