Overview
Giant Crepe is a food cart that faced long lines and messy paper orders. Customers often had to wait in the heat, and handwritten notes led to frequent kitchen mistakes. With no way to reward regulars or track sales across cart locations, the business needed a digital solution to scale.
Backstory
I needed to build a digital solution that allowed customers to order from home for quick pickup and automated a "Buy 10, Get 1 Free" loyalty program to keep them coming back.
Action
I used Svelte and Capacitor to build a single mobile app for both customers and cart staff. The order-ahead feature lets customers browse the menu and place orders from home so their food is ready the moment they arrive. I built a digital "Buy 10, Get 1 Free" loyalty tracker using Node.js and PostgreSQL to automatically record every purchase. A live kitchen display shows incoming orders in real time and highlights special instructions. I also created a business dashboard to monitor daily sales and stock levels across multiple carts.
Result
Pickup wait times dropped by 40% and physical queues became much shorter. Clear digital orders eliminated the confusion of handwritten slips, reducing errors by 80%. The loyalty program successfully turned one-time visitors into regulars. The system now manages multiple food carts with all data in one central place.
