Partial Barcode scanning, recipes, meal planning, and shopping lists are buildable with food databases like Open Food Facts and AI APIs. But 'evidence-based' health-goal guidance needs curated nutrition science and dietitian review, which code alone can't supply.
What it would actually take: The UI and planning logic are vibe-codeable. The hard part is a validated nutrition database and guidance engine built on clinical evidence, which needs registered dietitians or nutrition scientists to design and review. Scaling food-data coverage and accuracy also takes sustained data work.
