Team

Miikka Mättölä User interface

Ville Raukola User controller

Features

  • Conveniently see food selection near Skinnarila
  • Filter restaurants menus
    • By keywords
    • By diets
    • Supports multifiltering
  • Save filters in cookies

Tools

As our primary tools we used

  • React JS
  • Bootstrap
  • Git

Future

In future we are going to focus on on adding features by implementing our own back end, as the currently used API is very limiting and somewhat unintuitive. With own back end we can implement features like:

  • Prices of meal
  • Filtering by prices
  • Show results for many upcoming days
  • Allow user to select specific items and get notified when they are served
  • Live update on how filled the restaurants are (would require some cooperation from restaurants side)
  • Create our own API for campus restaurants to register themselves leading to support of multiple cities
