Project Brief
This project was born out of the need for a more robust, data-secure booking system compared to standard Firebase templates. It relies on a custom Node.js Express REST API backed by a proper PostgreSQL relational database.
The system is split into two core experiences:
- Buyer App: For end-users to discover restaurants, view availability, and manage their reservations seamlessly.
- Admin Panel: For restaurant staff to manage tables, approve bookings, and view analytics.
Security is handled via JWT tokens with strict role-based access control evaluated at the server level on every request.
Current Status
The backend infrastructure is fully operational. We are currently finalizing the UI implementations for the mobile buyer flow and the web-based admin dashboard.
