Overview

Kirana Corner connects nearby customers directly with neighborhood kirana shops instead of routing orders through a central warehouse. Customers discover shops on a map, browse local catalogues, manage a cart and address, then place an order that the selected shop fulfills itself.

The Vite + React application combines Firebase Auth, Firestore realtime collections, React Leaflet proximity discovery, role-protected customer and merchant flows, and a Vercel recipe assistant. The assistant uses Gemini only on the server, resolves ingredient intent against nearby, in-stock catalogues, and returns transparent matches rather than pretending unavailable products exist.
