FoodBuddy

The mobile app written by ReactNative that allows user to swipe write to find best matched restaurant based on their submited needs.

Inspiration

There are too many great places to eat when you visit a major city. This is great but you will suffer from the paradox of choice, for example, have you ever spent an hour just browsing Google Maps on which of the thousands of restaurants to eat next? This recommendation app intends to fix that problem by picking the best restaurant with only a single click based on the least amount of questions it can

How we built it

We design the UI in Figma, then implementing in ReactNative. The recommendation engine is based on the responses from google place API conresponding to information of users query. We also use FireStore in Firebase as a Database Mangagement System. The google cloud platform provides us API key to use in googe place.

Challenges

This is the first time we form the team, so it takes a while to shape the team and setup environment for the project. We had to to some new tools including ReactNative, Google Cloud Platform, Firebase, Google Place API. Therefore we face some trouble regarding authentication when fetching API.

What we learn from the project

The project provides use opportunity to work in team in a short deadline project. The inspiration is important for everyone to achive the goal. We learn a lot.
