Why am I building it?
I usually don’t plan my meals for the week, so I often find myself in a situation where I have to cook something (hopefully tasty) with the ingredients I have in the fridge at the time.

Recently, as a complete beginner, I started experimenting with Swift and SwiftUI, and this seemed like the ideal “starter project.” The idea is as follows:

Core features:

• Add ingredients to the inventory list, including the quantity.
• Remove ingredients and the quantities used from the inventory.
• Generate recipes using the ingredients available in the inventory.
• Estimate the calories and macros of the selected recipe.
• Add the calorie count to Apple Health.

Roadmap:

• Add ingredients based on barcode scanning.
• Save recipes in a database for users.
• Plan weekly meals and add them to the shopping list.

What's already working?
In the meantime, I have a rough proof of concept (POC) ready. I know my UI design skills aren’t top-notch, but I’m still quite surprised at how accessible Swift and SwiftUI are for absolute beginners like me.

Feedback is always welcome! Would you download this app? Do you think it’s worth pursuing this idea further? I’m curious to hear your thoughts!
