Week 5: Changing Project Idea & Updating report

Friday, March 17, 2023





1. Changing project idea
After a conversation I had with Anna and retrospecting my project Idea, I realise that the project I tried to make already exists. Applications such as "Supercook" and "NoWaste" are two applications that return recipes based on the ingredients in a user's pantry. Hence if I were to continue with this idea I will not be bringing anything new to the table and hence will add no value to my cause.

So I decided to refocus my idea. I am still interested and passionate about the reducing food waste in Indonesia as I recognise its imapct towards various sectors. Which is why I choose to tweak my project idea to:

Creating a digital solution that celebrates Indonesian cuisine to help Indonesian users reduce food waste and raise awareness of the country's diverse culinary scene.




2. Updating GANTT Chart
Because of the change in Idea I need to update my GANTT Chart to reflect it.

INITIAL GANTT CHART:

NEW GANTT CHART:

As seen from the GANTT Charts above, I changed the concept and idea of my graduation project in Week 5. Initially, my graduation project intends on reducing food by creating an app that returns recipes based on the user’s available ingredients. However, after further research and conversations with my lecturers, I’ve decided to change the intention of my project to focus on developing a digital solution that celebrates Indonesian cuisine as a means to help Indonesian-based users reduce food waste and raise awareness of the country's diverse culinary scene (Furthur explained in Section 8). As a result of changing the idea of my project, I had to change my GANTT chart schedule to accommodate the new idea.



3. Progress in learning SwiftUI
Learn to build the authentication model.

This proved to be harder than I expected as I had a difficult time organising user data in an effective manner.



4. What I did this week
  1. Updated "Explanation of the idea for a wider audience" in report
  2. Updated "Context for your project / Research" in report
  3. Research about "Beneficiaries"
  4. Continue learning SWIFT
