# Order Management Web App

A comprehensive **Order Management (Point of Sale)** web application built using **React** for the frontend and **Node.js** for the backend. This application streamlines order management by enabling multiple employees to create, update, and manage orders in real time.

## 🚀 Features

- **Order Management:**

  - Create new orders.

  - Update existing orders with status and details.

  - View all active and completed orders.

  - Each employee can generate and modify orders as required.

- **Real-Time Updates:**

  - Live synchronization of order data between the frontend and backend.

- **User-Friendly Interface:**

  - Intuitive and responsive design for easy navigation and interaction.

## 🛠️ Technologies Used

### Frontend:

- **React.js**

  - State management using Context API or Redux.

  - Responsive design with CSS or frameworks like Material-UI or TailwindCSS.

### Backend:

- **Node.js**

  - RESTful API development with **Express.js**.

  - Secure and scalable architecture.

- **Database:**

  - **MongoDB**  for storing order and user information.

### Deployment:

- Hosted using platforms like **Vercel** (frontend) and **Heroku/AWS** (backend).

## 🌟 Key Notes

- This structure is modular and scalable, making it easy to maintain and expand the project.

- Use `services/` if the application grows to manage complex logic outside the controllers.

Feel free to adapt this structure to suit your project's specific needs!

## 📈 Future Enhancements

- Implement role-based access control (e.g., Admin, Manager, Employee).

- Add analytics and reporting for order statistics.

- Integrate payment processing for seamless transactions.
