Business Case

Local bakeries often rely on social media for orders, which is difficult to scale. Sweet T provides a centralized inventory management and ordering system.

Backend Architecture

The project utilizes a RESTful API built with Express to handle complex order states (Pending, Baking, Out for Delivery). We integrated the Stripe API for secure, PCI-compliant payment processing.

Challenges

Handling real-time inventory updates—preventing two users from buying the last "Red Velvet Cupcake" simultaneously—required implementing transaction logic at the database level in MongoDB.
