Food Delivery Web Application

Overview

This Food Delivery Web Application is built using a Microservice Architecture, leveraging technologies such as Nest.js, GraphQL, Next.js, NextUI, Framer Motion, Prisma, TypeScript, and Node.js. The goal of this application is to provide a seamless and efficient platform for users to order and receive food from various restaurants.

Technologies Used

  • Nest.js: A powerful Node.js framework for building scalable and maintainable server-side applications.
  • GraphQL: A query language for APIs that enables efficient communication between the client and the server.
  • Next.js: A React-based framework for building server-side rendered and static web applications.
  • NextUI: A UI framework for Next.js that enhances the development of beautiful and responsive user interfaces.
  • Framer Motion: A motion library for React that makes it easy to create fluid animations.
  • Prisma: A modern database toolkit that simplifies database access with type-safe queries.
  • TypeScript: A superset of JavaScript that adds static typing for improved developer productivity.
  • Node.js: A JavaScript runtime for server-side development.

Features

  • Microservice Architecture: The application is designed as a set of loosely coupled microservices, each responsible for a specific functionality (e.g., user authentication, order processing, restaurant management).
  • GraphQL API: The application exposes a GraphQL API to provide a flexible and efficient way for clients to interact with the server.
  • Server-side Rendering (Next.js): Next.js is used for server-side rendering, providing better performance and SEO optimization.
  • UI Components (NextUI): The application's user interface is built using NextUI components, ensuring a consistent and responsive design.
  • Smooth Animations (Framer Motion): Framer Motion is utilized to create smooth and engaging animations to enhance the user experience.
  • Database Integration (Prisma): Prisma is used for type-safe database access, simplifying data management and ensuring data consistency.
  • TypeScript for Type Safety: TypeScript is employed to add static typing, reducing errors and improving code maintainability.
  • Node.js for Server-side Logic: Node.js is used for server-side logic to handle requests, process business logic, and communicate with databases.

Getting Started

Prerequisites

  • Node.js and npm installed
  • Docker for running microservices in containers
  • Prisma CLI for database migrations

Installation

  1. Clone the repository: git clone https://github.com/SQLSorcerer/food-delivery-app.git
  2. Install dependencies for the frontend: cd client && npm install
  3. Install dependencies for the backend: cd server && npm install
  4. Set up and migrate the database: cd server && prisma migrate dev
  5. Start the microservices: docker-compose up -d
  6. Start the frontend application: cd client && npm run start

Folder Structure

  • client: Contains the frontend code built with Next.js, NextUI, and Framer Motion.
  • server: Houses the backend services developed using Nest.js, GraphQL, Prisma, and TypeScript.
