Building a Dynamic Menu App: Lessons from the WG Food Menu Project

As someone working on both web development and food content, I recently created a project inspired by the WG Food menu — a dynamic menu experience that lets users view, filter, and search food items based on ingredients, dietary needs, and pricing.

In building this, I learned some key lessons:

How to structure food data using JSON effectively.

Using React components for real-time filtering.

Handling accessibility (like keyboard navigation) for better UX.

Integrating a simple backend to manage updates from a CMS.

This kind of real-world project really helped me understand the full-stack flow while keeping things tasty 😄

If you’re learning frontend or full-stack dev, building a food menu app is a fun way to practice real skills. I’d be happy to share the code or demo. Also, here’s the live site if you’re curious

Building a dynamic menu app like the WG Food Menu was a great hands-on way to learn full-stack development—from structuring JSON data and using React for real-time filtering to handling accessibility and CMS integration. It reminded me of how wendy's menu prices canada are organized for clarity and ease of access—simple, searchable, and user-friendly. Projects like this not only sharpen coding skills but also highlight the importance of clean UX and practical data handling.
