Overfull
Bordeaux-based reservation management and CRM software for restaurants.
Overfull is Bordeaux-based reservation and CRM software for restaurants. Online reservation, floor plan and customer file can be rebuilt. What justifies the subscription for an independent is long-term maintenance: security, emails delivered, updates. If you have a developer you trust, replaceable; otherwise, keep it.

The prompt to build it yourself
Build me a reservation and CRM tool for a restaurant, for my venue, to replace a subscription. Stack: web app (Next.js or Node/Express) with SQLite, hosted on my small server, usable on phone and computer. No mandatory paid service, no telemetry. Core of the tool: - Online reservation, floor plan and calendar. - CRM: visit history, tags, preferences. - Simple email campaigns with consent. Requirements: - Reservation form embeddable in my site: date, time, number of covers, contact details, remarks. - Capacity per slot and per service, meal duration by group size, blocked dates, waiting list. - Confirmation and reminder by email, with a cancellation link; no-show tracking. - Customer file with GDPR consent, export and deletion on request; spam protection. - Daily view for service: arrivals, tables, notes. Out of scope: platform integrations. README: installation, SMTP configuration, GDPR reminder, and a reminder that syncing with Google, TheFork or other platforms is out of scope.
