NaMahlzeit is a web application designed to simplify meal planning for shared living spaces, families, or any group that wants to coordinate meals efficiently. Built with Django on the backend and React on the frontend, this app provides an intuitive interface for creating meal schedules, managing inventories, and more.
This project originated from a common challenge in my shared apartment: deciding what to cook for the upcoming days. NaMahlzeit solves this by offering a collaborative space where users can plan meals, manage ingredients, and share their meal schedules with a group, making meal planning a hassle-free experience.
