# I'm Building a Professional Restaurant Menu System for My Portfolio

Hello Dev Community! 👋

I'm excited to share that I've started working on a new personal project: a professional-grade digital restaurant menu system, designed as if it were being developed in a real-world company environment.

🚧 Goals and Motivation

• Build a complete mobile app for digital menus and order handling
• Apply industry-level best practices in architecture, documentation, testing and maintainability
• Use this as a centerpiece for my developer portfolio to apply for international opportunities

🧰 Stack and Key Concepts

• Backend: Kotlin + Spring Boot
• Database: PostgreSQL with Flyway migrations
• Frontend: React Native + TypeScript
• Others:
  • Dockerized backend
  • CI/CD pipeline
  • Global error handling
  • Caching layer
  • Monitoring & observability
  • Email notifications

✅ First Milestones

• ✅ Defined the system's Entity-Relationship model
• ✅ Started implementing PostgreSQL migrations
• ⏳ Next: Design the backend architecture and authentication flow

---

I'll be sharing more updates soon — including challenges, architecture decisions and how I’m applying clean code principles along the way.
