Inspiration

I just felt, wouldn't it be nice to be able to order food in advance instead of having to worry about availability issues for your favorite items? This also helps restaurants know the minimum supplies they would need per day.

What it does

Although it's not completed yet, it's supposed to help you book food in advance. It sends a request for a bulk order to a restaurant where they can either accept or decline it. If accepted, a chat with the company starts for delivery.

How I built it

I started with building the UI for the app. I first built the home page and then a details page for every food item.

Challenges I ran into

I ran into a lot of problems with time and also with Flutter itself. I spent a long amount of time just wondering why some errors were occurring and then realized that it was because either the Flutter SDK was not up to date or some dependencies had some compatibility issues with different versions,etc.

Accomplishments that I'm proud of

Although it's still unfinished, I'm proud of how much of the project I was able to complete. I'm also proud that I was able to learn so much this weekend.

What I learned

  • I feel like I'm able to understand Flutter, especially error handling in Flutter a lot better.
  • I should have gotten teammates because I wasn't able to complete a large majority of the project.
  • I need to increase the speed at which I code and also my thinking. ## What's next for FoBo-The Food Booking App I will finish up with the entire UI and then integrate Firebase into it
