Grocery Tracker App

Cross platform application that will keep track of the groceries that are bought on a per home basis.

How this will work

• Expo will be used. You can read more about it here

  • Try to play around with it to get a better feel for this framework

• The entries will be stored on a AWS database, probably dynamoDB because it'll make things simpler.

  • You can find a tutorial here
  • the connection to the DB will be done through AWS amplify which you can read about here
