community, including all students, mess committee and faculty in charge of mess. This
system is designed to facilitate efficient communication, streamline operations, and
enhance the overall dining experience for everyone involved. It will interact with user
interfaces for both administrators and end-users.

● Performance:
The system should work fast and not make users wait. When you click on
something, it should happen quickly, like opening a mess menu or raising
complaints.

The system needs to keep information safe. Only the right people should be able
to see and change things, like menu details or user data.
● Scalability:
The system should be able to handle more users and information without slowing
down or breaking. It should grow smoothly if more people start using it.
● Usability:
The system should be easy for everyone to use. Buttons and options should
make sense, and it shouldn't be confusing to find things like mess menu or
complaint history.
System Requirements
● Operating System:
The Mess Management System is compatible with Windows, macOS, and Linux.
● Web Browser:
Developers should use the latest versions of major browsers.
● Frontend Development:
HTML, CSS, JavaScript, React.
● Server Requirements:
Node.js and Express.js are required components for the server-side
implementation, ensuring an efficient backend infrastructure.
● Programming Language:
JavaScript is the core programming language, with React.js utilized for the
frontend and Node.js for the backend development.
● Framework/Library Dependencies:
Developers should utilize npm packages for Express.js middleware and utility
libraries, ensuring efficient development practices.
● Security Protocols:
HTTPS must be implemented for secure data transmission.
● Authentication Mechanism:
User authentication is implemented using JWT (JSON Web Token) or Google
Auth.
Constraints:
● Capacity limit of database.
● Varying internet speeds and connectivity issues in different regions may affect
the user experience.
Future Implementation:
● Transaction Integration:
Integrate a secure transaction system to facilitate payments within the Mess
Management System. This feature would enable users to seamlessly make
transactions for meal orders in normal mess or night canteen through the
platform.
