Inspiration
Have you ever wondered what to have to eat? Get home from work/uni and just can't decide?
We have so we made a web app to decide for you
What it does
The app picks a random recipe from the database Displays the recipe and other information to the user Provides a link for the user to view the full recipe online
How we built it
The backend is built via an SQL database with recipes grabbed from a recipe API The database stores what ingredients have been liked/disliked The web app calls for a new recipe to be delivered and displayed
Challenges we ran into
Sorting the ingredients was challenging due to a lack of normalisation Building a dynamic webpage
Accomplishments that we're proud of
Randomly generating meals Parsing the original database
What we learned
Basics of building a flask web app How to manipulate web APIs
What's next for HackRecipe
Recommending meals containing preferred ingredients AI learning to recommend recipes based on the ingredients you tend to like/dislike using a weighting system
