FOOD-HUB

Online Food Ordering system built using MERN stack.

Purpose

The purpose of developing this “Online Food Delivery system” is to allow the end-users (most precisely college students or faculties) to go through the dishes available at the food stalls present in the institute, place their orders and get them delivered according to their convenience.

Scope

It will enable end-users to order food online and get it delivered, thus reducing long queues of customers at the counter and also reducing the workload of the employees at the food stalls (like canteen, Nescafe etc.) available at the institute.
