Find restaurants that deliver to you, check out without double charges, time couriers to the kitchen and track them live.
Backend and product engineers designing software behavior.
Your approach: Use diagrams, tables or prose for customer contracts, state transitions and data ownership; include APIs only to the depth the question requests.
Design a Food Delivery App like Uber Eats. Find restaurants that deliver to you, check out without double charges, time couriers to the kitchen and track them live. Work from the scoping questions below. State assumptions for any unspecified load, guarantee or target, then trace your design end to end. Explain one difficult case and a credible alternative; the worked example is a reference, not a required implementation.
Resolve the scoping questions for a Food Delivery App like Uber Eats. Separate stated behavior from assumptions, and identify what is outside your design.
Declare relevant volume, latency, freshness, quality or cost targets with units. Show calculations or an evaluation plan that can test them; unspecified targets are your assumptions, not hidden pass criteria.
Explain how your guarantees hold in a difficult case relevant to this subject. Address: Batching? Regions?
Identify users, required behavior and exclusions. Answer: Scale? Peak?
Define the information owned by the system and the inputs, outputs and errors at its boundaries. Resolve: "Near me"? Payment?
Estimate the dominant workload and resource demand with units and explicit assumptions. For a learned system, also state how quality is measured and what data is available.
Draw or describe the responsibilities needed for a Food Delivery App like Uber Eats. Trace a representative request, event or job from its input to a visible result; identify durable state owners.
Walk through a difficult case step by step, including detection and recovery. Consider: Tracking? Batching? Regions?
Compare a credible alternative using your chosen workload and guarantees. Explain a remaining risk, a signal to watch and when you would change the design.
