Lessons Learned

  • Through this MERN stack food-ordering project, I learned how to build a full-stack application end-to-end, integrating frontend components with backend APIs and database operations.
  • I gained hands-on experience handling user authentication, live cart updates, order tracking, and admin dashboard management, which taught me how multiple parts of an application communicate and work together.
  • I also learned how to implement secure payment flows with Stripe and manage data consistency across the frontend and backend, reinforcing my understanding of real-world application workflows.
