🧺 Laundry Management System

📌 Project Overview

The Laundry Management System aims to modernize traditional laundry services by replacing outdated manual tracking with a digital platform. Many college-based laundries still rely on handwritten records, leading to misplaced orders, tracking issues, and inefficiencies. This system provides a user-friendly, online solution for users, workers, and admins to manage orders, track laundry status, and optimize stock handling.

❓ Problem Statement

Laundry services in colleges face several challenges due to their offline nature:

📄 Manual tracking often results in lost or misplaced orders.
🚫 No real-time updates, leaving users uncertain about their order status.
📊 Stock mismanagement, leading to delays.
🕒 Long wait times, as all processes are handled manually.

💡 Existing Solutions

Current laundry services mainly rely on phone calls, manual logs, or WhatsApp updates, which:

❌ Lack real-time tracking for users.
❌ Are prone to human errors.
❌ Do not provide automated workflow management.

✅ Solution Overview

🛒 Users can submit orders, track laundry progress, and view order history.
