FlavorMind

FlavorMind is an AI-powered mobile application designed to help users plan meals, log recipes, track pantry items, and discover personal flavor trends. The app uses Claude 3 or GPT-4 with memory (MCP) to deliver personalized meal recommendations and insightful analysis based on your cooking history and preferences.

MVP Development Roadmap

MVP 1: Local Mobile Prototype

• Set up the core React Native app using Expo
• Build the following UI screens:
  • Log Meal
  • Meal Plan
  • Pantry
  • Flavor Profile
  • Settings
• Use AsyncStorage for local state management
• Enable manual meal and pantry logging

MVP 2: Backend Integration

• Create a backend service using FastAPI or Flask
• Design and expose the following API endpoints:
  • POST /log-meal
  • GET /pantry
  • POST /update-pantry
  • GET /meal-plan
• Use SQLite (initially) or Supabase (later) for persistent data storage
• Connect the mobile app to the backend using Axios

MVP 3: AI-Powered Meal Planning

• Integrate Claude 3 or GPT-4 with memory (MCP)
• Structure and store user memory in a consistent format
• Design prompt templates to:
  • Plan weekly meals
  • Recommend dishes based on flavor preferences
  • Surface cooking insights from past logs
• Display AI-generated meal recommendations in the mobile interface
