The five sections

The app is organised into five areas, reachable from the sidebar or from the bottom bar on small screens.

• DashboardToday at a glance
• DiaryHistory and trends
• FoodsFoods and recipes
• MealsYour favourites
• ProfileData and goals

• Dashboard · Your day

  The main screen shows the current day and lets you log meals in seconds: weekly calendar, the day's meals with their macros, a real-time calorie balance with a circular chart, weight and measurements with BMI and body fat computed automatically. You can import a meal from your favourites or copy a whole day from a previous date.

• Diary · History and analysis

  The Diary is for looking back: review past days, compare periods and discover your trends. Pick the range (week, month, year), filter by nutritional phase and read the charts: expected versus consumed calories, weight trend, BMI, macro composition.

• Foods · The food database

  The catalogue of foods and recipes you use to build meals, organised by brands, shops and categories. Each food has values per 100g and typical portions; each recipe computes total macros from its ingredients and can be used as an ingredient of another, with cascading recalculation.

• Meals · Favourites

  The food combinations you use often (your everyday breakfast, the post-workout snack) saved once and reloaded with a click, without re-adding the ingredients every time.

• Profile · Data, measurements and phases

  It gathers personal data and computed values (basal metabolism, daily needs, BMI, body fat percentage), measurements over time and, above all, nutritional phases: periods with defined macro goals, with activity level, dates and a calorie delta. From then on the Dashboard compares your intake against the active phase's goals.

• Linked accounts

  You can link your account to another person's: a partner, a family member, a nutritionist. The link is mutual: you share foods, recipes and cookware, and you can copy a whole day from the other's diary. Weight, measurements, phases, diary and favourite meals always stay private.

The tracked macros

Freedihare keeps eight nutritional values under control for every food, recipe and meal. The same colours appear throughout the app: in meal badges, in charts and in warnings when a value exceeds the phase goal.

• Kcal
• Protein
• Fats
• Saturated fats
• Carbs
• Sugars
• Fibre
• Salt

Under the hood

Freedihare is a personal project, designed and built end-to-end: from the data model and the APIs through to the desktop interface. It is a structured MVP, currently in testing and set to be expanded.
