Foodie Club

A web app to match people who would like to try the same restaurant and they would like to have others to go with. This project is deployed here.

The Problem

Ever wanted to go to a restaurant and people you know weren’t available that day? It’s hard enough getting 1 friend to be available at the same time, what about if you want to go with a bigger group? Sometimes people also don’t have a group of e.g. 6–8 people to enjoy the private dining room experience and there’s also no way currently to be matched to meet new people that want to go to the same restaurant as you at the same date or who want to explore new cuisines or restaurants.

Motivation

This project was the result of a team project of TechLabs's "Digital Shaper Program", a learning program that combines online learning and project work to learn about Data Science, Web Developement, Artificial Intelligence, or User Experience Design.
