Development process

Design and Data Flow

Before starting development, I created a comprehensive design and data flow for the system. This included outlining the user interface, database schema, and interaction between different components of the application. I have chosen Firebase, because it is best option for simple apps to speed up developement process.

Methodology

Throughout the development process, I followed a structured approach, breaking down tasks into manageable chunks and prioritizing them based on their importance and dependencies. I also made sure to regularly review and iterate on the design and implementation to ensure alignment with the project goals.

Unique Approaches

One unique aspect of my approach is my ability to think and code quickly. This allowed me to efficiently implement features and iterate on them as needed. Also, I optimized my web app with server side rendering;

Compromises and Challenges

I considered using my own API rather than given Edamam API, because I was planning adding recipe feature, but had some troubles with time.

Known Issues

No major issues with the app at the moment. I'll keep an eye out for any problems during development and testing.

Notes: I'm a student at Nazarbayev Intellectual School in 10th grade and typically study from 8:00 AM to 6:00 PM. Had some issues with time management.
