Kukeen is a full-stack web application designed to facilitate meal preparation with pre-packaged ingredients.
It allows users to sign up and log in as either customers or administrators.
- Customers can purchase mealkits, manage their cart, and perform other related actions,
- Administrators can perform CRUD (Create, Read, Update, Delete) operations on the mealkits inventory.
The application follows the Model-View-Controller (MVC) pattern for efficient organization and separation of concerns.

The website employs bcrypt.js to securely hash and store user passwords in MongoDB. Only registered users are permitted to log in.
I utilized express-session to secure endpoints, ensuring that only logged-in users can access certain pages. This also prevents customers from accessing administrator pages.
Administrators have the capability to create, delete, and edit meal kits through the admin panel.
Sessions are used to track user activity, maintaining the contents of the cart even if the user leaves the website. Users can also modify the quantity, add / remove items on their cart. By simulating the placement of an order, and email is sent to the registered user.
