Bharat Bites is a modern, user-friendly e-commerce platform developed using Django to support traditional Indian snack (Namkeen) sellers. The platform integrates essential features like a role-based login system, dynamic product management, secure payment gateways (PayPal), and real-time inventory updates. Designed to bridge the digital gap for small-scale snack businesses, Bharat Bites enables admins, sellers, and customers to interact seamlessly via a responsive interface. This paper presents the design methodology, technology stack, experimental setup, and core implementation strategies. Emphasis is placed on user experience, security, and performance testing. Results from the deployment phase highlight high user satisfaction, fast loading times, and full compatibility across devices. The study concludes with a discussion on future enhancements including UPI/Razorpay support, mobile app development, and AI-based recommendations.
