Nutrition

Story

While traveling in Australia, my friends and I were struggling a lot to know how healthy was the food that we were consuming each day. Our habits were broken and we no longer had any reference points with our cooking methods.

In order to get more insights about our consumption, I started to develop an application which calculates automatically the nutritional information of your daily food consumption, according to your personal needs.

How does it works? You just need to enter the food you consume during the day, and you will be able to see at a glance if you consumed too little or too much calories for today. You will even have information about your micro-nutrients consumption such as proteins, carbohydrates and lipids.

The first version of this application was a command-line program written in C, with a csv document used as a database. Then, with time, it has evolved into an application with a graphical user interface in the Pythonista environment, on my iOS device. The database became an SQLite database which enabled me to practice the SQL language. This Pythonista version allowed me to add some new features such as a user profile and to improve existing features with simplified addition and modification of the food.

A brand new version with a new graphical identity is currently being implemented with React to make it available as a full mobile application.
