Inspiration

Treehacks's 'Most Impactful Hack' and theme of sustainability encouraged us to think about one of the Sustainable Developmental Goals that is Zero Hunger and work on solving the global issue. As it is not possible to eradicate completely so we analyzed to implement in our homes; the change begins with our refrigerator. Certain factors such as Growing Concern about Food Waste, Advancements in Technology, Consumer Demand, Social Responsibility, Business Opportunities led us to come to the idea of FridgeSpace.

What it does

Our project addresses the challenge by tackling the global problem of food waste and by empowering individuals to take control of their food expiration dates. Our solution provides a simple and user-friendly platform that allows users to easily track their food inventory and receive alerts before it expires. With this technology, users can plan their meals better, reduce unnecessary purchases, and ultimately reduce food waste.

How we built it

We designed web pages and created prototypes using Figma tools and framed the UI with it. We used front-end languages like HTML, CSS, Javascript to develop the website. The system required accurate and up-to-date data on food items and their expiration dates. We collected data from various sources.

Challenges we ran into

It was challenging to maintain the accuracy in the details of the food items and their expiration date as new products are introduced regularly in the market. We also struggled in the preparing the recipe page in the website.
