Serendipity - 1 minute read
I'm always looking to get lucky. My latest project is a
website that that finds healthy food near people. https://github.com/tmurphree/healthy-near-me
I thought I would have to do a mash up of the Google Places API and
the Nutririonix API (which has nutrition information), but apparently this is
such a common use case that Nutririonix has a beta API end point for this. https://www.nutritionix.com/restaurant-map?c=38.8983:-77.0273:15
I guess the question is now, is the
project worth doing?
I think so. The whole point of the exercise is to deliver value to
the end user. If that happens, then it’s worth doing. Plus, depending on the quality of the endpoint, it may need augmenting anyway. I'll post my progress as things develop!
