Description
Recall Radar is an independent prototype for checking public FDA enforcement recall records without making an account or sending product clues to a server. It links back to source records, keeps matching in the browser, and is for awareness only rather than medical advice. I am looking for first-screen feedback: does the lookup feel clear, trustworthy, and useful enough to check something at home?

Could you build this?
Yes It is a lightweight client-side frontend that directly queries the public OpenFDA REST API and filters results locally in the browser.
