Is it vanilla rider-driver matcher or has some cherries like routes, timing etc?

In this sample driver can choose the rider. Routes and ETAs are handled by Firebase Cloud Functions that call HyperTrack APIs.

How do you calculate ETAs? Do you use Google Maps?

We use a combination of OSRM & Google Maps for routes and ETA
