How does it work

All the user needs to do is go a recipe webpage and click one button and Gredie will parse out the ingredients, scrape webpages from various supermarkets and give the total basket prices along with ingredients to buy.

How we built it

The user facing element is Chrome extension that they can use on recipe webpages. This talks to a React page which calls a Go API to parse ingredients and a Java backend with multiple scrapers to fetch ingredients and prices from supermarket websites and display them to the user.

What's next for Gredie

Connect to accounts for various supermarkets to add all the ingredients to your basket
