Develop Online Rental Platform for Diy, Garden & Leisure Items

We are looking for a skilled freelancer to develop a comprehensive online rental platform. The platform will facilitate the rental of DIY, gardening, and leisure equipment between individuals. The primary goal is to promote the circular economy, reduce waste, and offer an affordable and sustainable alternative to purchasing items for occasional use.

The platform should include:
- User registration and profile management (for both renters and owners).
- Item listing functionality with details, photos, availability calendar, and pricing.
- Search and filtering capabilities for users to find items.
- Booking system allowing users to reserve items for specific dates.
- Integrated payment gateway for secure transactions.
- Messaging system for users to communicate.
- Admin panel for managing users, listings, bookings, and payments.
- Rating and review system.

We need a robust and user-friendly platform that supports our vision of a sharing economy for equipment. Experience in developing rental or e-commerce platforms is highly valued.
