🎯 DETAILED DESCRIPTION

STUDENT SERVICES

Mess time and menu on the home page

Signing in to the account

The students can sign in using their respective Google accounts using the sign in option. Login can be restricted to certain domains like iiit-bh.ac.in

Buying coupons for next week

The student can apply for desired meals by selecting among the checkboxes. The final amount is displayed at the bottom for payment.

Upon clicking "Continue with Payment", the student is directed to the Payment Gateway of Razorpay to complete their purchase.

Purchase history

The student can check which meal and day coupons they have bought for the current and upcoming week.

Using QR code

The student will be provided a unique (static) QR code which can be used directly using smartphones or can also be printed and used just like an ID. In the case that the students feel that their QR code has been compromised, they can create a new QR code.

ADMINISTRATOR SERVICES :

Admin panel

This provides interface to edit the cost, time, and items of the weekly menu.

Total meals

This page shows the total meals to be cooked for the present week as well as the upcoming week based on the total coupons purchased.

Scan QR code

This allows to scan and verify the mess QR codes. After selecting the meal type, upon hovering the camera over a mess QR code it shows a tick mark if the person has purchased coupon for the given meal on the given day. Or a cross mark if the person has not purchased the meal, or have already claimed it.
