Category Slider and Filters
How does it work?
First Admin creates some categories like Veg, Non-Veg, Super Fresh, Organic, Chinese, etc
These categories can then be linked to any restaurants. (A restaurant can have N-number of categories)
Admin then creates a Category Slider Image/Slide and assigns categories to the Slide.
When the customer clicks on the slide/image on the application, they are taken to a page where all the restaurants are listed which were pre assigned to the categories.
Example
Admin creates categories :
Veg, Non-Veg, Super Fresh, Organic, Chinese
Admin then assigns restaurants to categories as follows:
Restaurant A -> Veg, Super Fresh
Restaurant B -> Chinese
Restaurant C -> Veg, Non-Veg, Chinese
Admin then creates three slides/images.
First Image (Picture of some Green Leaves) and assigns Veg, Super Fresh and Organic categories to it.
Second Image (Picture of some Chinese Bowl) and assigns Non-Veg and Chinese categories to it
Now on the application user sees the two images (Green Leaves and Chinese Bowl). When the user clicks on the Green Leaves image, they are redirected to a category filter page which has now Veg, Super Fresh and Organic Category pre-selected.
Hence, user is shown Restaurant A and Restaurant C when they click on the Green Leaves. Similarly, when the user clicks on the Chinese Bowl image, they are redirected to a category filter page which has now Non-Veg and Chinese Category pre-selected.
Hence, user is shown Restaurant B and Restaurant C when they click on the Green Leaves.
Uses can then click on restaurants to view the menu or play around with the filters to sort out different options/categories.
