A portfolio project built to land my next software engineering opportunity โ€” and explore how far React Router (Framework Mode) can go.

๐Ÿš€ Project Overview

I am building a full-stack restaurant reservation platform as a portfolio project. It features both a public-facing reservation site and an admin dashboard โ€” all built on top of React Router Framework Mode, with a PostgreSQL + Prisma backend and a modern UI stack.

Although the app uses dummy data, itโ€™s fully functional and architected like a real-world production system.

Iโ€™m currently open to software engineering roles โ€” especially full-stack roles involving React, TypeScript, and scalable backend architecture.

๐Ÿง  Why React Router?

React Router inherits the Remix philosophy โ€” staying close to web standards, server-side rendering by default, and minimizing client-side overhead.
This mirrors the traditional web model (routing, form submissions, session-based auth) while still leveraging Reactโ€™s component-driven architecture.

โš™๏ธ The result: a fast, SSR-first app with minimal use of global state or client-side data fetching libraries.

The frontend is built with modern functional React, while the backend follows a more class-based, structured design โ€” a mix that reflects real-world systems Iโ€™ve worked on and enjoy building.
