Protrack

• 

  Some background research collection we made in Excel

• 

• 

  A view of what the user sees when choosing an item in our food library

Inspiration

For cooking beginners knowing how long food and ingredients last and keeping track of it all can be difficult, so we decided to make an app to track and remind you of these expiration dates!

What it does

In its current form you can select your food in our compendium, insert the date of purchase, and will receive the countdown timer until its expiration date.

How we built it

We coded using Swift on Xcode and collaborated using GitHub. We also did extra research on food types and their predicted lifetimes which we organized on Microsoft Excel

Challenges we ran into

We learned Swift for the first time during this hack-a-thon, so we ran into various learning curves. Some challenges we ran into were switching pages, importing different files, and working with classes. Despite this, we were able to work around it and study up on these features for future reference.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

We're proud of learning Swift on such short time, as well as just the front-end UI and its interface.

What we learned

We learned many things about collaborating on projects, creating an ios app, as well as working with various files.

What's next for Protrack

We wish to add more foods that the user can select and create their own item to add. We would also like to work on profiles so the user can save their progress when they leave the app.
