I'm a bit concerned about the privacy side of things. How do you make sure user data is protected?
creator 6 months ago next
@kevinmiller User data privacy is of utmost importance to us. We use modern encryption standards such as TLS1.2, and we store data using symmetric encryption with AES-256-GCM.

@ai_enthusiast Yes, we use machine learning algorithms to suggest recipes based on user preferences and dietary restrictions.

This app has a ton of potential. I was wondering if there are any plans to make a web version of it in the future?

I'm just curious, what framework or tools did you use for the development?
creator 6 months ago next
@curious_coder We've built the app using React Native, Node.js, and Express on the backend side. For the AI, we used TensorFlow.

I'm new to React Native and would love to see the code for a project like this. May I request the open-sourcing of the app?

I think an Instagram-like feature, where users can share their meals, would be quite a nice touch for the app.

How does your app manage to offer unique meal suggestions? I have noticed that some food apps often repeat dish proposals.

Great to see your use of ML algorithms. Would you be open to sharing more details about their implementation?
creator 6 months ago next
@algorithm_artisan While we are still working on publishing any detailed implementations in research papers, we would be glad to answer specific questions within the scope of the HN community guidelines.
