Description
CarbonSight is the first offline-first food carbon footprint tracker built for regions where connectivity can't be assumed. It lets users check a product's contents and carbon impact before they eat it — no constant internet required, unlike existing carbon apps.

Could you build this?
Partial While the offline-capable PWA scanner interface is straightforward, calculating carbon footprints offline requires a proprietary, compact, localized food-to-emissions database.
What it would actually take: A production version would be built as a local-first mobile app or PWA using SQLite (or OPFS) bundled with a compiled emissions database derived from Agribalyse or Open Food Facts. The difficult challenge is embedding a comprehensive, accurately mapped barcode-to-ingredient-to-LCA (life cycle assessment) database small enough to reside offline on low-end devices while still resolving hundreds of thousands of regional packaged food products.
