Greentable - Connects Restaurants with Leftover Food to Those in Need

Greentable is a web application built using the MERN (MongoDB, Express.js, React, Node.js) stack that aims to connect restaurants with leftover food to people in need. The application allows restaurants to register, list their available food items, and manage their inventory. Users can view available restaurants, see their food offerings, and access their details.

Features

• Authentication: Restaurants can sign up and log in using a specific password obtained by calling a designated phone number. Users can access the platform without authentication to view available restaurants and food items.
• Restaurant Dashboard: Authenticated restaurants have access to a dashboard where they can manage their restaurant details and update their food inventory.
• User Dashboard: Users can view a list of restaurants in their city along with their food offerings, addresses, opening hours, and vegetarian/non-vegetarian options.
• CRUD Operations: The application supports Create, Read, Update, and Delete operations for restaurant data and food items.
• Refer to the PPT for the rest.
