Abstract
The "Hostel Mess Food Management" web app is a practical and modern solution designed to simplify the daily challenges of managing mess operations in schools, colleges, and other institutions. The project tackles common problems like inefficiency, manual errors, and communication gaps that are often part of traditional mess management systems. Its goal is to create a unified platform where administrators, supervisors, and students can easily collaborate, reducing food wastage and improving overall accountability. The app is built using XAMPP and employs a range of technologies, including HTML, CSS, JavaScript, Bootstrap, PHP, and MySQL. It has distinct features tailored to the needs of different user roles. Administrators can manage student and supervisor records, send announcements, and oversee food-related data, with options to export this data into Excel for analysis. Supervisors are responsible for updating menus, tracking food consumption, and monitoring attendance. On the other hand, students can view menus, provide feedback, and stay informed through announcements. An Agile development approach was used to create this application, allowing for constant improvements based on user input and iterative testing. During deployment and testing, the app showed significant improvements in streamlining operations, ensuring data accuracy, and enhancing user satisfaction. By automating key processes and addressing inefficiencies, this system supports better resource management and makes mess management simpler and more effective for everyone involved.Keywords: Food-Management, Mess, Monitoring, Effective, Resource
