MenuMaker is a Java based application with a PSQL database. The database connections are handled using JPA. The build manager is Maven. This project may be ported to Kotlin to better work with my Food Dairy program.

MenuMaker is an intelligent meal planning application. It plans a week of meals for you and your family that uses common ingredients.
Have you ever had to buy a can of tomato paste for two tablespoons? MenuMaker is designed to avoid this problem.
An additional benefit to having your weekly meals use the same ingredients is you don't have to buy as many things, which saves you money.
MenuMaker can also help you eat healthier, planning your meals and groceries makes you less likely to eat out on a whim.
I plan to work in the ability to avoid or select for specific foods. Maybe you're lactose intolerant, or maybe you're craving papaya, MenuMaker will
help you plan what you want.
Eventually I plan to work in the logic to tell which fruits and vegetables are in season. This would allow for even tastier meals
and a chance to encourage more shopping at farmers markets.
