Food Delivery Spring Boot Application

A Scalable Backend Solution for Food Ordering

• RESTful API: Clear, standards-compliant endpoints for easy integration with a frontend client (mobile app or web).
• Data Persistence: Managed by [Database Name, e.g., PostgreSQL] via Spring Data JPA.

📁 Project Structure
