Description and Inspiration

This project was inspired by a friend when I was stranded and need to build some representative webapps for my portfolio, describing her idea she stated it'll be nice to have a food blog but with inclusion of user registration and authorization, from it users can also see list of popular restaurants and their menu. Then registered users would be allow to rate the restaurants they've been to while to the app would later be used to order foods from top restaurants.

Installation Guide

Before you'll be able to run this project, you must have python installed with pip or pip 3 enabled. Clone the repository and run pip install -r requirements.txt This command would install all the project requirements on your machine, I'll suggest you do all this in a virtual environment. After dependency installations run python manage.py make migrations and python manage.py migrate which would migrate everything in this projects migration folder to an SQLite db.

The project should be ready by now, so run pytjon manage.py runserver, navigate to your browser and follow the prescribed local host url. You should see this project in its full glory.

Usability

This project can be used for primarily any of the afforementioned user query except for ordering food from restaurants, it's not done just because we need the restaurants permission to use crawl their site and I can't really afford to contact them one after the other.
