Overview
A biophilic, mobile-first digital storefront for a pure-vegetarian cafe, built to shift reliance away from third-party aggregators with a direct-to-consumer presence and targeted flows for students, families, and remote workers.
The Challenge & Solution
Aggregators take a cut and own the customer relationship. We gave the cafe a fast, audience-targeted storefront that converts directly through WhatsApp on a zero-backend stack, so it owns its customers and keeps its margin.
Architecture
A purely serverless Next.js 16 and React 19 application on Tailwind CSS v4, holding cart state entirely client-side in localStorage against a static JSON menu, with no backend database.
Telemetry & Outcomes
A lightweight rules-based recommendation engine drives cross-selling, and pre-formatted WhatsApp URLs handle checkout and table reservations without any server-side order processing.
