SweetFree

๐Ÿ’ป Just got back from HackPrinceton, my fourth time here, and still canโ€™t get enough of this campus vibe! ๐Ÿ‚

This time I built SweetFree, an app that helps you track and cut down on sugar in a fun, gamified way.

๐Ÿญ Inspo:
Last month I gained 5 pounds traveling from one hackathon to another (too many snacks, zero workouts ๐Ÿ˜…). So I thought, why not build something to help fix that?

๐Ÿ’ก What it does:
It tracks your daily sugar intake, gives health insights, suggests healthier swaps, and rewards you with streaks and badges. It also features barcode scanning, AI-powered meal analysis, and motivational reminders.

As Princeton University Professor Alan Turing once put it: โ€œA computer would deserve to be called intelligent if it could deceive a human into believing that it was human.โ€

Hackathons remind me how close weโ€™re getting, not just to building smarter systems, but to creating tools that truly understand and help people.
