Inspiration
One of our teammates and some of our friends who live in dorms often struggle to decide what to cook for dinner. They have limited options because they don’t have many recipes in mind.
What it does
Plateful helps users find the most suitable recipe based on their preferences and budget.
How we built it
We designed the user experience with Figma and connected our project to a recipe API to generate personalized meal suggestions.
Challenges we ran into
This was our first time working with an API, and we faced challenges presenting the information effectively to the AI. We also ran out of time to design the homepage the way we envisioned.
Accomplishments that we're proud of
- that as first & 2nd year students we were able to implement a working AI API for the first time
- that we created an aesthetically pleasing user interface using figma
- we created an app with complex functionality in less than 24 hrs
- generated an idea that no other existing products do after pivoting when existing products already were on the market with the original idea
What we learned
We learned how to use Figma for UX design and how to integrate APIs into our project.
What's next for Plateful
We plan to improve the UX design, display food photos, and add new features such as saving and sharing recipes.
