BMW & MINI tools — with a VIN Decoder demo.
Bimmer.Guru is built for enthusiasts and workshops: clean UX, modern styling, and a dedicated VIN Decoder area ready to connect to your future PHP backend.
What you get
Multi-page site with a gated VIN Decoder, sample API stub, and a clean “BMW-ish” light theme.
Access is granted only through /go_vin.php, using a short-lived session token.
The VIN response is rendered as cards + tables, ready for your real backend.
Clean UI
Whitespace-first layout, subtle shadows, rounded corners — with Motorsport accents.
Workshop-ready
Simple structure: PHP pages + a demo API endpoint + vanilla JS rendering.
Easy to extend
Drop in your decoder backend later. Keep the UI exactly as-is.
A simple flow you can build on
The VIN Decoder page already includes a fetch call to a PHP endpoint. Replace the demo stub later with your real logic.
1) Navigate to VIN Decoder
Click the VIN button. We set a session token and redirect you to the decoder.
2) Enter VIN + Decode
The page calls /api/vin_decode.php and renders the response dynamically.
3) Replace demo API later
When your backend is ready, keep the same JSON shape or adjust the renderer.
4) Expand with your tools
Add authentication, rate limits, history, exports, and workshop features.
