Project Overview

The project aimed to develop a comprehensive tool to address the challenges faced by restaurant staff in managing day-to-day operations. The platform had to ensure efficiency while being highly accessible for users with minimal technical expertise. The application's primary goal was to improve restaurant workflow, enhance customer satisfaction, and optimize staff coordination.

The Challenge

Developing the application presented several unique challenges:

• Dynamic Table Management: Restaurants have varied layouts and frequently changing reservations. The system needed to adapt dynamically to any floor plan and schedule adjustments.
• Real-Time Synchronization: Ensuring that reservation updates were instantly reflected across all devices for seamless communication among staff.
• Subscription-Based Revenue Model: Creating a robust backend to manage recurring payments, trials, and multiple subscription tiers.
• User-Centric Design: Developing a highly intuitive interface for staff and customers while maintaining a feature-rich backend for managers.

The Approach & Solution

To meet these challenges, the following solutions were implemented:

Dynamic Floor Plan Designer: A flexible editor allowed managers to customize restaurant layouts, ensuring the application adapted to any seating arrangement.

Automated Table Assignment: Efficient algorithms assigned tables based on party size, time, and availability, reducing manual errors.

Real-Time Updates: The system featured live synchronization for reservations, ensuring staff had the latest table availability at all times.

Subscription Management: Integrated Stripe for managing recurring payments, trials, and upgrades, supporting the subscription-based business model.

Intuitive User Interface: Designed a responsive and user-friendly application for both staff and managers, making reservation management straightforward.

Notifications & Alerts: SMS and email alerts were implemented to inform customers and staff of reservation status or changes in real time.

This project showcases how tailored web applications can transform industry workflows, providing both functionality and usability while delivering measurable business results.
