Inspiration
We noticed the general lack of education in healthy and nutritious eating habits.
What it does
The website allows users to search the nutritious value of many foods, plan out and compare their own diet plan with an ideal one, and learn about different affordable and nutritious foods.
How we built it
We used react to build the frontend of the web app and nodejs for the backend and API calls.
Challenges we ran into
We had trouble figuring out how to make API calls for the food data we used.
Accomplishments that we're proud of
We are proud of making the website visually pleasing and successfully making the API calls.
What we learned
We learned how to use React and Node.js to make a web app and also learned more CSS skills.
What's next for The Nutrition Calculator
In the future, we may add the average price of different food items to help users develop a meal plan that is both healthy and economically sustainable.
