Overview
Pantry Pal is a full-stack application designed to help roommates and households manage pantry items efficiently, reduce food waste, and make meal planning easier. By keeping an accurate inventory of what’s available and suggesting recipes based on existing ingredients, the app prevents double buying and ensures food gets used before it spoils. Built as my capstone project in just one week, Pantry Pal showcases my ability to deliver a complete, functional solution under a tight deadline.
