Feature Slicing - Organized by feature domains (cart, menu, order, user)
Container/Presentational - Separation of logic and presentation
Redux Toolkit Slices - Modern Redux patterns with reducers and actions
Custom Hooks - Reusable logic abstraction
API Service Layer - Centralized API communication

💻 Frontend Documentation

Component Architecture

The frontend is built with React 18.2 using modern hooks and functional components. The application leverages:

State Management Strategy

Global State (Redux) - User info, cart data, order details
Local State (useState) - Component-specific UI state
Server State (API calls) - Menu data, order status

Component Hierarchy

App
├── AppLayout
│   ├── Header
│   │   ├── UserName
│   │   ├── CartOverview
│   │   └── SearchOrder
│   ├── Main (Outlet for routes)
│   │   ├── Home (Landing Page)
│   │   ├── Menu
│   │   │   └── MenuItem[]
│   │   ├── Cart
│   │   │   └── CartItem[]
│   │   ├── CreateOrder
│   │   └── Order
│   └── Footer
└── ToastProvider

Routing Structure

/ (Home)              → Landing page with hero section
/menu                 → Browse all pizzas
/cart                 → Review cart and proceed to checkout
/order/new            → Create new order form
/order/:id            → Track specific order

Key Frontend Features

1. Smart Cart System

// Redux Toolkit slice with powerful actions
- addItem()        // Add pizza to cart
- deleteItem()     // Remove from cart
- increaseItemQuantity()
- decreaseItemQuantity()
- clearCart()      // Empty entire cart

2. Advanced Search & Filter

// Menu component features
- Search by pizza name
- Search by ingredients
- Filter: All / Vegetarian / Available Only
- Real-time updates with debouncing

3. Form Handling

// CreateOrder component
- Form validation with error states

- Real-time price calculation
- Submit via React Router action

4. Animation System

// Framer Motion animations
- Page transitions
- List animations (stagger)
- Hover effects
- Cart item animations

🔗 Backend Integration

API Architecture

PizzaFlow integrates with an external Restaurant API for data management. The backend integration is handled through service layers:

API Services (`src/services/`)

1. Restaurant API (`apiRestaurant.js`)

const API_URL = 'https://react-fast-pizza-api.onrender.com/api';

// Available endpoints:
GET    /menu           // Fetch all pizzas
GET    /order/:id      // Get order by ID
POST   /order          // Create new order
PATCH  /order/:id      // Update order (add priority)

Features:

Async/await pattern
Error handling
Data transformation
Request/response validation

2. Geocoding API (`apiGeocoding.js`)

// Reverse geocoding service
getAddress(lat, lng)   // Convert coordinates to address

// Uses external geocoding service
// Provides detailed address components

Backend Data Flow

User Action → Redux Action → API Service → External API
                                    ↓
User Feedback ← Redux State ← Response Handling

Example API Integration

// Fetching menu data
export async function getMenu() {
  const res = await fetch(`${API_URL}/menu`);
  if (!res.ok) throw Error('Failed getting menu');
  const { data } = await res.json();
  return data;
}

// Creating an order
export async function createOrder(newOrder) {
  const res = await fetch(`${API_URL}/order`, {
    method: 'POST',
    body: JSON.stringify(newOrder),
    headers: { 'Content-Type': 'application/json' },
  });
  if (!res.ok) throw Error('Failed creating order');
  const { data } = await res.json();
  return data;
}

Backend Features

✅ RESTful API Integration
✅ Error Handling & Retry Logic
✅ Data Validation
✅ Async State Management
✅ Loading & Error States
✅ Optimistic UI Updates
