Inspiration
This app was inspired by the thousands of people that have allergies and diet restrictions in the world. Especially as college students we were interested in having recipes that are easy to find and make. We haven’t come across a platform where we can find recipes that only include the ingredients we have and simultaneously take care of our diet restrictions and allergies.
What it does
FoodFix allows users to enter their allergies, diets, preferences, and dislikes to generate a recipe that's perfect for them. By using this app users can stay safe and healthy by finding recipes of their favorite ingredients that accommodate their allergies and diets.
How we built it
We built this app by using React.js, JavaScript, Mantine, and Firebase. We also used edamam’s API for recipe search.
Challenges we ran into
Collaborating so all of our git pushes were cohesive with our project goals, ensuring that everyone was up to date with updates on the code with time zones differences, and learning how to implement a variety of components from Mantine. By communicating on discord, setting goals, and diligently searching for solutions through documentation and forums, we were able to complete our task.
Accomplishments that we're proud of
We successfully implemented the idea that we thought of at the beginning of the hackathon, managed our time despite being from different time zones, and brainstormed solutions for issues.
What we learned
All of us worked with technologies that we hadn’t used before. By looking over documentation, online forums, and a lot of testing we learned how to implement and work with these new technologies.
What's next for FoodFix
Next for FoodFix we hope to implement a “Gallery” feature where users around the world can share pictures of the recipes they’ve made using FoodFix recipes and inspire others to cook. We also hope to add an “add recipe” feature so users with unique diets and allergies can add their own special recipes and share it. These features will encourage the community of people on FoodFix to keep cooking and eating healthy options! We also would like to add a “history” and “favorite” sections so users can look back on previous recipes.
