Freshfarms is a web application designed to record the transactions of a local farm's outlet. It is built with only one goal in mind: to make it easy for the farm's outlet to keep track of their customers' purchases and payments therefore reducing conflicts during payments.
Local farms operate on credits and often struggle with managing customer transactions, leading to confusion and disputes. Freshfarms addresses this issue by providing a simple and efficient way to log all transactions, ensuring transparency and accountability. The application is built with a modern tech stack, including React.js, Tailwind CSS, Express and MongoDB. It is deployed on Netlify for a demo. This project was built for reassurance for the farm's outlet owner, who was concerned about potential conflicts with customers over payments. Now, with freshfarms in place, the staffs as well as the customers can view their transactions and maintain positive relationships with each other.
The design was created without using Figma or other design tools. Instead, it focused on simplicity and usability, ensuring that even staff members with limited computer skills could easily navigate and use the application. The interface uses clear layouts, large buttons, and straightforward workflows to minimize confusion and make daily operations efficient.
The implementation of Freshfarms has significantly improved the management of customer transactions at the local farm's outlet. Staff members can now easily log and track purchases and payments, reducing the likelihood of disputes with customers. The transparency provided by the transaction history has fostered trust between the farm and its customers, leading to better relationships and increased customer satisfaction. Overall, Freshfarms has streamlined operations and enhanced the financial management of the outlet. Summary of purchases and payments are now easily accessible for customers that purchase on credits and pay at end of month, ensuring clarity and reducing misunderstandings.
