Nomly platform for restaurants in development

Project overview

Nomly is a platform in development for restaurants and other hospitality businesses that often rely on separate tools for their website, content, reservations, and marketing. The goal is to bring those functions together in one product with one predictable monthly price.

Collaboration

I work closely with the founding team on product direction, technical choices, and ongoing development. My role combines lead developer and product owner: I translate the product vision into features, shape the technical architecture, and help steer the product roadmap.

The problem the product addresses

Many hospitality businesses end up managing a patchwork of separate tools: one for the website, one for reservations, one for menu updates, and another for marketing. That creates extra cost, duplicate work, and less day-to-day control.

Nomly is being developed to reduce that fragmentation. The idea is simple from the client’s perspective: one platform, one monthly fee, and one central place to manage the digital side of a restaurant business.

What is being built

• A multi-tenant foundation so multiple hospitality businesses can run inside the same product with clear data separation.
• A central environment for website management and CMS functionality.
• Support for reservations, menu management, and marketing tools inside one platform.
• A technical foundation that can be extended later without rebuilding the product from scratch.

Challenges

• The platform has to combine several functions without becoming too complex for restaurant teams to use.
• The multi-tenant setup needs to keep customer data properly separated while still remaining practical to maintain as the product grows.
• The technical decisions need to support the first release while also leaving room for future expansion and integrations.

Technical approach

• Laravel with a multi-tenant setup as the backend foundation for isolated customer environments.
• Nuxt for the front-end and public website experience.
• Headless API so different parts of the platform can evolve more independently.
• Docker, Jenkins, and self-hosted tooling for a controlled development and deployment workflow.

Result

Nomly is still in development and internal review, so there are no public client results or launch metrics to share yet. The value of the work at this stage is in creating a credible product foundation: a platform structure that brings multiple hospitality workflows into one solution and is ready for further testing, validation, and refinement.
