About

Food has always been the most important aspect in my life, and when the pandemic, I was wondering if there was a way to make a fun interactive way to connect people through food. Eventually, I saw that a small team made an app that connected people through restaurants and thought that was really neat. So for my third project, I wanted to use the skills I learned from General Assembly and make an app that connected people through images of food using React.js. Originally, I wanted to gather photos of food from the vicinity of the user from various restaurants, but with the time crunch and a lack of knowledge of the backend side of programming, which I was excited to learn eventually in my bootcamp.
