## Description

Chow Local is an ethical food delivery app designed to support local restaurants by eliminating commission fees typically charged by big food delivery apps. Unlike others that charge up to 30% commission per order, Chow Local ensures that all payments go directly to the restaurant owners in your community.

Customers can easily sign in using their mobile phone number, set a delivery address to find nearby restaurants, browse menus, and place orders with secure payment processing via Stripe. The app allows ordering for delivery or takeout, with order tracking available whether delivery is provided by the restaurant or a Chow Local driver. Chow Local is perfect for those who care about sustaining local businesses and keeping economic benefits within their community.
