A Counter Built For Speed And A Kitchen That Reads Itself
The counter screen is built around how fast an order can be entered, not how much it can display: category tiles, one-tap modifiers, split and merge on the open ticket, and a keypad that never moves. Staff were productive on it inside a shift because the layout does not change as the menu does.
Confirmed orders route straight to the relevant kitchen display over websockets — grill, fryer and cold station each see only their own items, with elapsed-time colouring so a stalling ticket is visible before a customer notices. The menu, prices and availability live in one admin, so an item marked out of stock disappears from every terminal at once. Sales by item, hour and staff member are on the dashboard before the shift is closed.
