user experience and networking
App for helping with food preservation and community building
The app supports users in learning food preservation, connects them with like-minded individuals and local producers, and promotes healthy, sustainable habits.
Main goal
I improved my UX/UI skills by applying design principles to create a user-friendly app. I incorporated research results, focusing on user needs and translating them visually with the help of different AI tools. I gained experience working with Figma and InDesign to create a visually intuitive experience.
Personal gains
Recipe pages
The app allows users to search recipes by food or preservation method, with ingredient details, equipment lists, adjustable quantities, and step-by-step instructions.
Knowledge pages
This knowledge function offers a central hub for preservation tips, methods, and best practices, including equipment and food safety guidance for beginners.
Digital pantry
The app's digital pantry tracks preserved foods and ferments, calculates fermentation times, and notifies users to avoid food waste.
Event pages
An interactive calendar shares local events on nutrition, preservation, and sustainability, while allowing users to create events and connect with others.
The Stakeholder Map and Value Proposition Canvas helped align the app's features with user needs, ensuring it provides value through sustainability, community, and accessibility.
