The challenge
Food ordering is concentrated into short windows — a checkout that is merely adequate at low traffic fails exactly when orders arrive together.
What we built
- Static menu rendering with dynamic availability, so browsing never waits on stock lookups.
- Stripe checkout with clear failure handling, because a declined card at peak should recover rather than lose the order.
- Firebase for real-time order state, giving the kitchen a live queue rather than a refreshed list.
- Mobile-first ordering flow, since the majority of orders arrive on a phone.
Outcome
Ordering holds up during peak windows, and the kitchen works from a live queue rather than printed tickets.
