Inspiration

We currently face an overpopulation problem at our university campus, it affects everything, including cafeterias. We consistently have to wait in line for at least 20 to 30 minutes just to get a meal. We think the situation can improve.

What it does

As an student, I can order food and pay it right in the app. Then, I can go to the café and only pick my food. As an admin, I can see (and control) each order and the status of my different tupper.

How we built it

We used React Native for the app and React JS for the admin app, we went with a serverless architecture (firebase)

Challenges we ran into

Integrating all the different "mini-projects" (apps / web / hardware) and making sure we weren't missing anything.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

Our first time that we using push notifications.

What we learned

Cloud Functions of FireBase

What's next for CaféTec

Integration with the school's proprietary POS and payment processing systems.
