    Week-5 Report (Food NextDoor)

With increasing concerns about sustainability and food insecurity, we saw an opportunity to use smart app features to build a solution that connects food donors (restaurants, supermarkets, households) with recipients (charities, shelters, and individuals). Key Insights from Our Discussion: 1. Real-Time Donation System A key app feature we discussed is real-time food listing , where businesses can quickly upload surplus food items with expiry times. Users near the location receive instant notifications for pickup—reducing the risk of waste. 2. Smart Matching Algorithm The app should match food donations with the closest verified recipient using filters like food type, quantity, dietary preferences, and pickup time. This improves eff...
