The client wanted a food ordering platform where customers could browse restaurant menus, add items to a cart, and place orders online, similar to popular food delivery apps but tailored to their own business.
The goal was to give the client full control over their menu, orders, and pricing without depending on third-party delivery platforms and their commission fees.
I built a full stack web application using PHP, Laravel, MySQL, and a responsive frontend with Bootstrap, JavaScript, AJAX and jQuery. Features included a dynamic menu management system, a shopping cart, an order placement flow, and an admin panel to manage menu items, categories, and incoming orders in real time.
The main challenge was making the ordering flow feel as smooth as established food delivery apps, especially the cart and checkout experience on mobile devices, while keeping the admin side simple enough for non-technical restaurant staff to use daily.
I addressed this by using AJAX for cart updates without page reloads and designing a straightforward admin dashboard with clear order statuses. The final application is fully functional and live.
