# ExDiet: calories calculator & daily meal planner

[![build status](https://api.travis-ci.org/mugimaru73/ex_diet.svg?branch=master)](https://travis-ci.org/mugimaru73/ex_diet)

There is a lot of great diet journals available on the internet (for example [myfitnesspal](https://www.myfitnesspal.com/)).

They provide you access to a community-driven database of meals and ingredients with the UX focused on logging what you've eaten with minimal efforts.

This works great with ready-to-eat products from popular brands or meals from chain restaurants but it doesn't work for home-made food. Different ingredients and proportions

used in your recipes lead to the significantly different nutritional value of your meal.

What my ideal diet planner looks like:

- It allows me to maintain a private database with ingredients from local markets;

- It allows me to calculate the nutritional value of meals that I cooked from those ingredients precisely;

- It allows me to fill in my diet journal using data from the above steps;

- It visualizes daily totals so I can match them with recommended thresholds;

With those use cases in mind, I created ex_diet. At this point, it provides all of the features mentioned above and I use it every day. You can try it out at [exdiet.tk](https://exdiet.tk) or fork it and refer to the deployment section to create your instance.
