Review/handoff-ui-audit.md is a focused handoff for a fresh agent taking over the UI/UX audit and fix cycle (Sprints 1, 2, 3). It complements docs/HANDOFF.md (project-wide) rather than duplicating it. Covers: - Commit table (f3e4a44/ccc70aa/f5fb755/e90a9d6) and deploy status (Sprint 1 deployed, Sprints 2-3 awaiting deploy). - Per-sprint file-level diff summary so the next agent can audit the changes without re-reading the audit doc. - Environment quirks: deployment host is not this machine; psql lives in the db container; frontend/src/lib/ is force-added because of a pre-existing .gitignore bug; pre-existing WIP in git status; ESLint not configured. - Active risks: backend migration not yet run; Dashboard Undo rebuilds not restores; S3.5 a11y caveats. - The 9 explicit follow-up items in audit \xa7Future. - Quick-start for the next agent.
Meal Planner
Self-hosted meal planning system that integrates with Lucky California grocery store, sends weekly meal proposals via email to family members, generates shopping lists, and learns from feedback.
Background
This project was born out of frustration with meal kit services (Blue Apron → EveryPlate → HungryRoot → Sunbasket) that:
- Escalate costs to 3x ingredient markup
- Fall into repetitive meal rhythms
- Force users to log into apps to manage selections
- Don't integrate with home pantry items
Features
- Grocery Integration: Scrapes Lucky California weekly ads and sales
- Family Approval Workflow: Email proposals with approve/deny; one denial swaps the meal
- Shopping List Generation: Weekly list grouped by store aisles, highlighting sales, with interactive checkboxes to track purchased items
- Pantry Integration: Specify home items to incorporate into suggestions
- Web UI: Modern interface for the whole family
- Learning: Feedback-based meal recommendations, with weekly auto-discovery of new recipes from external APIs when family preferences are signaled
- Recipe Images: Scraped from public recipe sites, AI fallback available
- Unit Conversion: Converts recipe quantities (cups, tbsp, lb) to grocery units for accurate cost estimates
Architecture
- Backend: Python/FastAPI
- Database: PostgreSQL
- Frontend: React + Tailwind CSS
- Email: SendGrid
- Hosting: Docker Compose with nginx reverse proxy
