I`m starting a new side project: https://scrapmeal.com/
Maybe I`ll discuss the reasons why in the thread.

Its based on an idea that I had a while ago and posted in this thread: https://www.thefastlaneforum.com/co...ndom-problems-you’ll-never-execute-on.103068/

The idea is a web app (for now). The goal of the app is to present users with cooking recipes. The twist is that the app lets users choose ingredients that they have at home. Based on the choice of the user it gives them a list of recipes that they can prepare with what they have at their home.
Basically I want to solve my own problem here, I`m sick of trying to find recipices to cook with things I have at home. The current websites are abismal. I`m tired of getting offered 27 different recipes for crepes as if one wasnt enough...

This side project has multiple purposes.

I've been going deep into AI coding agents and I think I'm ready to put it all together and have a sort of virtual team complete with team leads, developers, designers and more.
Will it work? I think it will, just need to execute my vision.
I'll detail the progress here, the tools and tech I`m using, the ways I`m using AI agents and more.
I'll also provide my expertise as a CTO so that following my steps will result in a professional secure project so long as you can "hold the leash" of the AI agents.

Secondly I've been wanting to experiment with microservice architecture for a long time, my sysadmin side yearns for it. This project will be unreasonably distributed and scaleable for what it is. It'll work lightingly fast. Multiple services and databases, kubernetes, the works.

WARNING: This thread will be failry technical, but I can explain things in a simple way if anyone wants to ask me anything.

As a start I've already decided on services and DB structure and I've started with the users service.
I`ll update the thread regularly with the progress, what I`m doing and why.

If all goes to plan I should be able to control the whole proejct through a ticket system and github.
