Feature requests & roadmap / Re: Grocery List
« on: October 23, 2009, 05:01:13 am »
i like this idea, this is the exact kind of feature i'd like to add too.
i'm not so interested in scales, more just letting it know unit quanities
i.e.
Adding items
1 put it in "unpack groceries" mode
2 as you pull each item out list how many you're removing
Removing items
Ensure the system is in "normal" mode
1 every time an item is removed either scan it using the bar-code scanner or search and list X# of that item as removed
Placing left overs in the fridge
1 Put the system in "left overs" mode
2 List the item and its expected best before date (this will let you track expired items in the fridge and possibly even at a later date make it easier to suggest items to eat as they expire soon)
Lots of things that could be done here ...
I'm an ex-developer now project manager...not much free time but i'd like to give something like this some room to move. Have you done any work so far?
