About Travel Manager
A Laravel 13 + Filament 5 application that manages the full booking lifecycle for tour operators. Tours are defined with itineraries, destinations, pricing and minimum group sizes; departures are dated runs with seat control, guide assignment and vehicle tracking. Bookings move through held, confirmed, travelled, cancelled and no-show statuses with deposit and balance tracking, payment recording (cash, card, bank transfer), refunds, extras, fees and numbered invoices. A transaction-locked seat allocation prevents overselling the last seat. The public site shows live availability and takes enquiries; staff convert enquiries into held bookings.

Quality report
Manually reviewedHow to read the quality report
What this is. Every project on Vibe96 goes through an automated audit of its source code before a reviewer in Dubai checks it by hand. The score is out of 100; 75 is the minimum to be listed, and any single failing check blocks a listing regardless of the score.
- Security
- No real credentials in the code, every data-changing route protected, admin areas role-gated, no SQL built from user input.
- Code structure
- A developer can navigate and extend it: clear module boundaries, no giant files, little copy-paste.
- Docs & completeness
- The setup guide, example config, schema and required files the builder committed to are actually in the archive.
- Dependency health
- Packages pinned, no known critical vulnerabilities, no abandoned libraries in production paths.
- Build & deploy
- A clean machine can restore, build and start it by following the shipped instructions.
Warnings are problems that didn't block the listing; they stay visible here until a later version clears them. The audit reads the code — it does not run it — so always try the live demo before you buy. Lines of code are counted from the same audited archive.
Reviewer notes (2 minor)
Strong authentication on all mutating endpoints; minor ownership gaps on read-only routes; database access is safe; minor schema gaps: missing indexes on foreign keys; good separation of concerns with minor duplication in agent/claude skill directories. None of these stop the software from working; the developer has been told and improvements come in a future update.
