Project Description:
Nutricooks is a soon-to-be-available application for iOS and Android devices. The application solves the problem of finding what, when, and how much to eat to meet your daily nutritional goals.
When users provide their personal and health information, biometrics, and preferences, the application uses industry-standard calculations to build a custom nutritional profile based on their needs.
Upon login, users arrive at the home page, the central area for recipe exploration. Here, they can browse recipes by category or search by keywords. Selecting a recipe navigates to that recipe’s page. This page is the area for learning about a recipe. Users can read a recipe’s background, ingredient list, preparation description, and nutritional content. They can also watch an instructional video and like, comment or favourite the recipe. Navigating to the weekly hub shows users their meal plan, nutrition targets, and grocery list. The meal plan page allows users to build daily meal plans for the current week by adding and deleting recipes. Meal plan data dynamically constructs the other pages. The targets page provides an overview of a user’s daily progress in achieving the nutritional goals in their nutritional profile. The achieved values come from the nutritional content of recipes in the meal plan for the selected day. The grocery list provides a breakdown of recipes in the meal plan by ingredient. Users can view their grocery list at a daily or weekly glance. Finally, the settings tab allows customization of details such as personal information, payment, or colour scheme.
