Let R be a recipe composed of n ingredients. Each ingredient is denoted by its amount of calories c. The recipe R has a quantity q of each ingredient composing it. The goal is to find the right quantity q for each ingredient such that ∑_i=0ⁿ c_i * q_i = T. T behing the target number of calories that you want for your recipe. Exemple: I want to make a recipe composed of oats, milk, eggs, flakseeds and peanut butter such that the total number of calories for the recipe is 600 kcal; how much of each ingredient should I take? This is the purpose of this repository.

How it works

Roadmap

• [X] Add ingredients
• [X] Remove ingredients
• [ ] Enable users to quickly find and select from a pre-populated list of values as they type an ingredient name
• [ ] Handle more units (currently only grams, next: liters, units, etc.)
• [ ] Can choose the range for proteins, carbohydrates and fats (eg. I want a 600kcal recipe with at least 30g of proteins)
• [ ] Optimize the PRAL index (how acid the recipe is)
• [ ] Error handling
• … Don’t hesitate to add issues including the features you’d like to see
