Caloreats
Functionality
The goal of Caloreats is to help users control their daily calorie intake. With an intuitive menu, users can select their preferred diet (e.g., gluten-free, vegetarian, vegan) and their daily calorie target. The app then generates a personalized meal plan for the day, including breakfast, lunch, and dinner, complete with detailed nutritional information.
All recipes are provided by the Spoonacular API, which features over 2,600 ingredients and 360,000 recipes. Each recipe includes pricing, health information, nutritional analysis, images, and cooking tips.
Navigation
Upon launching the app, users are directed to the login page, which supports email or Google account authentication. Once logged in, the user is taken to the calendar screen. In the calendar, users can add notes or schedule activities for each day. Each day features a "plus" button to add a meal; selecting this prompts the user to input their calorie and diet preferences. Clicking on a recipe links directly to the Spoonacular page for detailed information.
