GRAB - A food ordering platform

GRAB is a mock food ordering website submitted as the midterm project in the Lighthouse Labs Web Development Bootcamp. This project is a collaboration between Berker Erol and Edgar Rojas. Our web application is built with Node JS, Express, AJAX, jQuery, HTML5, PostgreSQL and the Twilio API.

You can actually visit our application on https://grab-food-ordering.herokuapp.com/ .

Statement

GRAB facilitates food ordering experience by allowing a user to place an order online and recieve a text message when their order is ready for pick up from the restaurant.
