Inspiration

We felt that we needed to be able to find food more easily and have more information about its nutrition (e.g. calories, sugars, proteins, etc.).

What it does

Our app looks for food in your local area and displays its nutrition facts, which can be filtered to have more healthy options.

How we built it

We used Next.js, Typescript, and React.

Challenges we ran into

We were rate limited by Nutritionix because we accidentally spammed their API a bit too much.

What we learned

We learned more about network requests and testing API requests with Insomina.

What's next for Food Finder

We hope to expand to include more options within our app, such as more sorting and filtering options, tracking nutrition within the app, improving the UI, and improving network request efficiency.
