Inspiration

We wanted to reduce food waste, by facilitating the consumption of already-bought food into simple and delicious recipes.

What it does

sadfridge.com allows you to input the ingredients available to you in your fridge or pantry and search for recipes in our database for you to make at home

How we built it

We built the site using a react native front-end, a flask back-end, and a MongoDB database.

Challenges we ran into

Connecting the database to the backend was extremely difficult, as we were inexperienced. Uploading our data was also difficult, we had to change from PostgresSQL to MongoDB to get the data inputted due to errors in our dataset

Accomplishments that we're proud of

For some of out team members, this was the first time they collaboratively worked on a software product with others. We are proud of all the progress we made.
