Introduction

This project is designed to handle receiving customer orders of various bakery items It demonstrates clean techniques to filter user input data and output an order receipt that optimises the packaging types to best fulfil the order requirements. Whilst the sample data is for a bakery, it could easily be adjusted for more generic purposes, hence the project name is order-inventory-packager.

Under the hood, it has been created in such a way that the App-constants.js file can be adjusted with new items, packs and other data and the application will pick up on these changes and continue to produce expected results always selecting the most efficient grouping of packs for a given quantity of items.

Aside from the ability to dynamically adjust to change, the application was built to demonstrate instantiated components connected to a global store via MobX.
