A full-stack pickup-only ordering platform for a single restaurant, built around bilingual menu browsing, configurable combos, phone verification, live admin order management, analytics, and receipt printing. Built with AI-assisted development support.
Role
Designed and built the customer ordering flow, admin console, backend APIs, database model, receipt system, and deployment setup.
Focus
Making restaurant-specific ordering logic feel simple for customers while giving staff practical tools for managing live pickup orders.
Customer Experience
Customers can browse categories, open item and combo detail pages, customize modifiers, keep a persistent cart, verify by phone, and choose ASAP or scheduled pickup slots based on store hours and prep time.
Admin Console
The admin dashboard supports login, current and past orders, live updates with Server-Sent Events, audio alerts, order status changes, ready-time controls, store settings, and analytics.
Ordering Logic
The system handles combos, modifier limits, nested selections, drink options, rice and soup add-ons, set-meal discounts, tax, nickel rounding, and server-side validation to prevent price tampering.
Operations
Staff can review revenue, order counts, sales mix, demand patterns, and top items. The app also supports email notifications, printable receipt routes, print queues, and Star WebPRNT thermal printer integration.
