RecipeMe – Recipe App

Although short-lived, programming this recipe-sharing application was a delightful experience. Inspired by my mother’s

search for new and interesting recipes, the app was designed to allow easy sharing and browsing of different culinary ideas. Despite its brief development period, the project was a significant learning opportunity. I mastered the implementation of Deep Links,

which function like typical URLs but are uniquely tied to your app—tapping one would either launch your app or direct you to its download page in the app store, along with passing specific content like a particular recipe directly into the app. Additionally, I delved into cloud storage solutions, enabling users to upload and retrieve images of dishes. Perhaps most excitingly, I explored Optical Character Recognition (OCR) through a Machine Learning API, which allowed the app to convert text from a photo of one of my mother’s recipe cards directly into editable text within the app. This project, though brief, was an invaluable and fun learning experience.
