snap solution

With so many ordering choices and customization options, creating a simple to use yet versatile user interface was kay to achieve Fruccola’s objectives. The solution needed to work equally well on IOs and Android while controlling the server of vending machines. We also took the communication channels into consideration, to enable the Vending module development and integration. This module is equipped with a Spring Boot application that enables communication through Message Queue with the vending machines. It follows the status changes and takes care of exception handling as well.
