The difference is measuring and quantification. Engineering means you know, or can estimate, a load and perform calculations to see if your design meets that load.
Most food order apps seem to be more like, eyeball it, slap something together, then it works until it doesn't, at which point you figure out a fix. That works for a while until something else breaks, so you patch a fix into that. Ad infinitum.
