I imagine it would be a matching engine that projects can apply to their own specific needs. Or are the brains of DoorDash and Uber already open source, like how most of the WWW runs on FOSS?

I know that there is a libretaxi. It's kind of like FOSS Uber but I haven't used it myself. I'm not sure how difficult it is to build such an app. I think the difficulties usually lie in ensuring compliance with all laws, ensuring fame among users, i.e. somehow advertise. website: https://libretaxi.org/ github: https://github.com/ro31337/libretaxi
