## Overview

ForkiFy is a role-based restaurant platform: customers discover restaurants and make reservations, managers administer restaurant operations, and owners manage restaurants and review reports. The React app routes users into those experiences; the Express server mounts API routes, which access MongoDB models. The README also describes menu ordering with a cart and checkout, but the supplied tree has no dedicated order or checkout backend, so that capability is represented only at the customer-facing restaurant page. Several frontend-to-API connections are not evidenced by sampled source and are omitted.

Main entry points: [`server/server.js`](https://github.com/computer-com/forkifyy/blob/main/server/server.js) (Express API), [`client/src/App.jsx`](https://github.com/computer-com/forkifyy/blob/main/client/src/App.jsx) (App routing), [`server/routes/reservationRoutes.js`](https://github.com/computer-com/forkifyy/blob/main/server/routes/reservationRoutes.js) (Reservation API), [`server/models/User.js`](https://github.com/computer-com/forkifyy/blob/main/server/models/User.js) (User records)
