I built kcal[0] after a similar search. The focus is primarily on macros and ultimately I kind of lost steam on developing further (though we still use it to great success). A part of why lost interest is that I didn’t like PHP + Laravel as much as Python + Django.
Anyway I see you have the Famnom code on GH but apparently not with an OSS license. Are you planning to seek contributions with a friendly license in the future? If so I’d be interested.

- willhoyle 4y agoI also have a similar project partially done but lost steam (eatplants.app). I always think I should just finish it to make it functional. My thinking is that logging food is annoying (weighing and tracking food you ate). I want to make a more fluid way of just selecting recipes or food and encourage a more scalable/intuitive way of eating. Looks like a cool project you’ve built there.
- umangsh 4y agoAbsolutely open to contributions :). Didn't pay attention to licensing yet, will look at options.
- jwally 4y agoCongrats on shipping! Do you use linear programming / some other optimization algorithm to hit targets, or is it more like a deficit tracker where you tell it what you ate and it tells you that you need 8 more mcg of zink or whatever?
- umangsh 4y agoThanks! MealPlanner generates suggestions through a constraint programming solver, taking into account any foods consumed earlier in the day. The home page tracker shows nutrient consumption (and deficits) for the day.
