nutree.si

Submission for GarudaHacks 3.0

Inspiration

Our goal is to educate Indonesians regarding food nutrition and raise awareness for healthy eating habits, but in a fun manner! Nowadays it is common for people to take pictures of their meals before digging in to later share it with their friends on their social media. So why not make a platform where people could share their meals and keep track of their nutritional intake at once?

What it does

Allows users to track their daily nutrition intake
Discover macros of commonly found foods in Indonesia
Save your own dishes and post the photo on Instagram

How we built it

First we made a mockup of the application in Figma to better visualize the app and its features. React Native was then used for development alongside the extensive NativeBase UI library.

Challenges we ran into

Learning how to design an intuitive app with a tech stack that is relatively new to us. Difference in time zones for each team members also hinder us from collaborating more effectively.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

Working in a functional team and having a functional MVP.

What we learned

App development is not as straightforward as we thought it'd be.

What's next for nutree.si

Extend the functionality of the application by having a backend service to store user accounts, expand the database to include more food items, and having a social feature (inspiration: BeReal) so that you could keep up with what your friends are eating daily.
