What’s in my fridge?
July 18, 2022
App Overview Everyone who cooks looks inside their fridge to find out what they can cook with the available ingredients in their fridge. “What’s in my Fridge?” App will do just that. When a user enters the ingredients that they have on hand, the app will find out recipes that they can click and access. It will focus on recipes which mainly use the user’s ingredients. It will have a home page, about page, page to search for recipes and an error page.As stretch goals, I hope to add random food jokes/gifs to it too. Use the App here!

SWOT ANALYSIS STRENGTHS - Idea, Design WEAKNESS - Props,API Endpoints,Logic OPPORTUNITIES - Widgets to show how a food might taste, meal plan, grocery list generator THREATS - Using multiple API’s? Efficiently using API to produce end result At this point of the project, I have to ensure the API endpoints are efficiently utilized for the App.
