The Challenge
The challenge was creating a seamless online platform that would enable users to order food from various restaurants conveniently and have it delivered while integrating a Point of Sale (POS) system to streamline order processing and inventory management. The goal was to provide a user-friendly experience that would enhance customer satisfaction and improve operational efficiency for restaurant owners.
We developed a robust online food ordering and delivery website to address this challenge and worked closely with the restaurant's POS system provider to establish a seamless integration. The platform was designed with an intuitive user interface, allowing customers to browse various restaurants, view menus, select items, customize orders, and complete the checkout process effortlessly. In addition, we customized the integration between the website and the POS system, implementing custom APIs and robust data synchronization processes. This integration ensured that orders placed through the website seamlessly flowed into the restaurant's existing order management workflow, syncing menu items, pricing, availability, and order details in real time.
By leveraging these technologies, we created a comprehensive and feature-rich online food ordering and delivery platform that provided a seamless user experience, real-time updates, secure payment processing, and efficient background task management.
We utilized ASP.NET Core as the primary web framework for building the backend of the online food ordering and delivery website. ASP.NET Core provided a robust and scalable foundation for developing high-performance web applications.
For front-end development, we leveraged Angular, a popular JavaScript framework. Angular allowed us to build a dynamic and responsive user interface, enabling seamless interactions and enhancing the overall user experience.
To ensure an engaging mobile experience, we implemented Progressive Web App (PWA) technology. PWA enabled users to install the website as an app on their mobile devices and enjoy native-like functionality, including offline access and push notifications.
We integrated SignalR, a real-time web framework, to enable bi-directional communication between the server and client. SignalR facilitated real-time updates, such as order status notifications, chat functionality, and other dynamic features, enhancing the overall user experience.
We utilized Hangfire, a job scheduling library, to handle background tasks and automate order processing, notifications, and other asynchronous operations. Hangfire ensured efficient task execution and improved system performance.
We developed RESTful APIs to facilitate seamless communication between different system components. REST APIs allow data exchange between the front and backend and third-party services, enabling smooth integration and interoperability.
As a payment gateway, we integrated Stripe to handle secure and reliable online payments. Stripe provides customers with a seamless and user-friendly payment experience, supporting various payment methods and ensuring transaction security.
Another payment gateway we integrated was Bambora. Bambora facilitated secure and convenient online payment processing, offering a range of payment options and ensuring compliance with industry standards.
