I often forget what non-perishable foods I already have on hand and end up buying more of things I already have. I figured that I probably wasn't the only person who was forgetful about what was in their cabinets, so I made a progressive web app (PWA) to help people keep track of their food.
I decided to make the app a PWA so that if you had a poor Internet connection while inside a store, you'd still be able to at least see the latest cached version of the items in your pantry.
I used the World Open Food Facts API to get data about food items from their barcode: https://world.openfoodfacts.org/data.
The app is free and only requires a Google account to use.
